German-Iranian gunman kills nine in Munich, then himself: police

According to official reported of German police, shooting attack in Munich was carried out by one person, not three, as it was reported earlier. An 18-year-old German-Iranian gunman who apparently acted alone opened fire near a busy shopping mall in Munich on Friday evening, killing at least nine people, Reuters wrote.

The pistol-wielding attacker, identified by Munich Police Chief Hubertus Andrae as a dual national from Munich, was later found dead of a suspected self-inflicted gunshot wound.

Authorities said it was too early to say whether it was a terrorist attack, and said they had no immediate evidence of an Islamist motive.
