Hamburg shooting: First picture of gunman who killed seven including unborn baby

A gunman who killed seven people including an unborn baby at Jehovah's Witness church in Hamburg has been named.

Philipp F, a 35-year-old business centre employee, is believed to be responsible for the mass shooting that took place Thursday evening, according to German Nespaper BILD. Seven people were killed in the attack, including an unborn child, and eight others wounded, four of them seriously.

His motive is still unknown, with Chancellor Olaf Scholz, a former Hamburg mayor, describing the attack as as “a brutal act of violence.”
