ISIS is making videos of the attack widely available on the internet. Police now say it is all over at a Munich Mall, where a shooter opened fire. At least one person is dead and ten have been wounded. German newspaper, Sudduetsche Zeitung, is reporting that several people are dead and several more are injured. Police will not confirm casualties at this time. They also haven’t said what happened to the shooter, although they have assured the public that the threat is over. An extremist Islamic attack was perpetrated in the same German state of Bavaria earlier this week when a man on a train used an axe and a knife to to injure numerous passengers with four in critical condition.
“People running away to seek shelter!” posted one Twitter user, along with a video that appeared to show streams of people filing past the building.
A major police operation was underway at the mall, Munich police tweeted, urging people to avoid the area.
The sprawling two-story Olympia Einkaufszentrum opened in 1972 during the Summer Olympics in Munich, according to the mall’s website.
