A doctor in Germany is suspected of killing 10 patients with a mixture of lethal drugs and trying to cover up at least five of the slayings by starting fires, investigators said.

In August, the Berlin doctor, 40, was arrested and charged with manslaughter for allegedly killing four patients, all of whom were elderly women between the ages of 72 and 94, police said, the Associated Press, ABC News and NBC News report. (Authorities have not identified the doctor, citing policy.)

After he allegedly killed them, he set fire to their homes, police said at the time, DW.com reports. Police were able to put out some of the fires, authorities said.

In November, authorities in Berlin said they found evidence that led them to believe that the doctor, who worked on a nursing service’s palliative care team, killed four more patients, according to the AP.

Now, investigators say they believe he is responsible for allegedly killing two additional patients, bringing the total number of victims to 10.

On Tuesday, authorities said they believe the doctor allegedly killed a 25-year-old woman and then a 57-year-old woman, both in their Berlin apartments.

Authorities said they believe the doctor killed them with a lethal mix of medications, the AP reports.

In a joint statement, prosecutors and police alleged that the doctor’s only motive was to kill the patients and that the suspect’s actions meet the legal definition of “lust for murder,” the AP reports.

The first suspected case came to light on June 11, 2024, when firefighters were called to put out a fire at the home of an 87-year-old woman, who later died at the hospital, DW.com reports.

Investigators allegedly found evidence that the doctor killed a 76-year-old woman on June 8, 2024, whose house was set on fire by the doctor, DW.com reports.

“When he realized this, he allegedly informed a relative of the woman and claimed that he was standing in front of her flat and that nobody was answering his doorbell,” police said, DW.com reports.

He allegedly killed a 72-year-old and a 94-year-old in the weeks that followed, DW.com reports.
