Gunfire rang out at a shopping mall in the German city of Munich on Friday evening, leaving several people dead and others wounded, CNN affiliate NTV reported.
The shooting, which started at about 6 p.m. local time at the Olympia shopping mall, is over, police spokeswoman Claudia Kvenzel said. Kvenzel had no immediate information about casualties or what led to the shooting.
Several dead and injured. lots of conflicting information circulating, reporting between 3 and 11 casualties. Public transportation system shut down completely. Perpetrators (witnessess report three armed men) still on the run. Police does not know their current location. Public asked to stay inside.
update : The Perpetrator has been found dead. After killing 9 people, with 3 still critically injured, he shot himself while on the run. Perpetrator is an 18 year old Iranian-German, who acted alone. All reports of several men or shootings have been false alarms. Public traffic is running again. The video of the perpetrator arguing with another man suggests a killing spree by a deranged individual rather than a terrorist attack, although no motive has been confirmed as of yet.

edit update:
The mall apparently has several hundred stores.

Yes, most probably no second shooting. There are 2-3 possible perpetrators. The police has no clue where they are. Public transport stopped, some streets closed off. Stay @home people!
I live 2-3km from there, I could hear a lot of sirens.

Spiegel says the shooting at the Stachus was wrong alarm

There's also no confirmed 6 deaths, german police released a statement 6 minutes ago clearly stating they have no idea how many injured and/or dead.
|
I've never seen police forces go into a search mode without vests or helmets etc.

Stay safe everyone, really hope they lockdown/corner/catch the fuckers.

3 confirmed dead Are you aware that sharing such videos is probably what the attackers were hoping for?
Well, now I've seen it on tv aswell. Don't take it too personal.

Mafe, if you think what you just saw now is bad, don't even look at Twitter. I think every other tweet is showing footage/victims. (edit: not that it excuses, but social media seems to become a mess when these types of events first break out)
FWIW, BBC's live blog on this is here: http://www.bbc.com/news/live/world-europe-36870986

Eh, That explains why there was an announcement in the sub that the U3 won't stop at certain stops earlier.
