MUNICH -- German police on Saturday appealed to members of the public to submit video and picture evidence after a lone gunman – with dual German-Iranian citizenship – killed nine people and injured 16 others after opening fire near a fast-food restaurant and at a shopping center before killing himself.
The attack was the third to target civilians in Europe in just over a week following a deadly assault in Nice that killed 84 people and a knife and ax rampage on a train in Bavaria that injured a group of Hong Kong tourists.
The man, 18, has not been named and his motive is not clear. He sparked a manhunt with 2,300 security forces across Germany's third largest city Friday after shooting at passersby outside a McDonald's restaurant and later at the Olympia mall. A "pistol" was used carry out the assault, police said.
