Munich shooting: police say lone attacker is among the dead


Cautious all-clear declared after shooting in which 10 people died

The lone gunman who killed nine people and wounded a further 21 at a shopping center in Munich before shooting himself was an 18-year-old German of Iranian descent, police have said.

Munich police had declared a cautious “all-clear” Friday night following a mass shooting in the shopping centre. The attack sparked a manhunt that shut down the entire city, as security forces hunted for a number of suspected attackers.

However, police confirmed in a press conference that the shooter had acted alone, and was dead.
A 15-year-old girl was among the dead, and several injured youngsters have been admitted to children’s hospitals in Munich, local media reported.

Police stopped trains, buses and trams, closed highways to private cars and ordered citizens to stay in their homes as they searched for suspected killers, as false rumours of fresh attacks sent panic through the city. The transport network was reopened following the all-clear.

One body found near the site of the shopping centre carnage appeared to be the gunman who killed himself, authorities said. They were using a bomb disposal robot to search the site for explosives and booby traps, a local reporter said.

Police have identified the gunman who killed 9 people in a shooting at a shopping centre in Munich as David S. Local media have named the attacker as 18-year-old Ali David Sonboly, who has both German and Iranian citizenship. He appeared to have shot himself around 1 kilometre from the scene of the attack at the Olympia shopping centre.

Peter Beck, a Munich police spokesman, said officers were still collecting evidence at the scene of the crime Saturday morning. "With regard to the suspect we have to examine everything, but we don't know yet what triggered the crime," Beck said.
