Munich, July 23 (IBNS): At least nine people were killed as a gunman attacked a shopping mall in Germany's Munich city on Friday, reports said.
According to reports, the suspected attacker,who was identified by the police as a 18-year-old German-Iranian dual national, killed himself.
The incident left 16 people injured.
The body of the suspect was found about 1km (0.6 miles) from the Olympia shopping centre in the north-western suburb of Moosach, BBC reported.
Munich police chief Hubertus Andrae was quoted as saying by BBC: "The motive or explanation for this crime is completely unclear."
