Several people have been killed and others wounded in a shooting at a Jehovah's Witness centre in Hamburg last night (Thursday, March 9), reports in the German city said.
The number of attackers involved was unclear but it is believed the shooter or shooters are among the dead in the centre. Detectives said there was nothing to indicate a perpetrator on the run, and the motive for the massacre was unclear.
Police sources said that when officers arrived at the scene they found several people seriously injured and some dead. “Then they heard a shot from above, they went upstairs and found one further person,” one said.
