@Region Philbis,
The situation is not clear at all, but there are obviously some dead and several perons wounded.
Public transport has been totally stopped (trams, subways, trains, busses), all shops and stations are closed.

@oralloy,
It seems there have been three shooters who are still on the run. (Several media report this, quoting police sources.)

Citizens in Munich are told via a catastrophe warning app, not to leave their houses/flats.

@Walter Hinteler,
The warning says: "special situation" due to amok. Stay inside, switch radia and tv on for further informations.

@Walter Hinteler,
Seems (unconfirmed, but by several sources) that six persons have been been killed. And that it "only" has been a shooting at this shopping mall.

@Walter Hinteler,
It's dealt with by police as "terror suspicion" now (officially).

European countries need to tighten their borders back up forget this European Union crap and go back too demanding passports from country to Country... then they need to start expelling all non-citizen Muslims back to the Middle East... And in this country we need to round up all illegal Muslims and Deport them post haste... Because it's just a matter of time a very short time before we see it here... And don't bother with the racist comments and the xenophobic comments, This Is War.

People panicked quite a lot (and quite understandable!) due to the Würzburg attack. (Especially at Munich main station and the "Stachus", main station/place in the inner city.

[Can't post frequent updates due to the site's "flood prevention"]

The suspects are said to have "rifles".

Drivers are asked not to drive on motorways (Autobahn) to and from Munich (to keep the roads clear for emergency and police cars)

The Border Protection Group 9 of the Federal Police (GSG9, an elite German counter-terrorism, hostage rescue and special operations police unit) is helping the Munich and other Bavarian and Federal police forces now, too.

@Walter Hinteler,
Several people are still in the shopping mall, hiding in storerooms. In phone calls some of those said, they are lacking fresh air ...

@Walter Hinteler,
Police update (two minutes ago):
The Munich police hasn't arrested anyone so far after the shooting at a shopping mall. Nothing is known about the nature and number of victims Due to the still unclear situation we ask all people in the urban area to stay at home or to search protection in nearby buildings. The public transport doesn't operate currently. (The airport is not affected.)

@Walter Hinteler,
Until now five dead according to the police. (Confirmed) And there are "up to three suspects with rifles".

[Exactly four years ago, there had been the terrorist attacks by Anders Behring Breivik in Norway.]

@edgarblythe,
ISIS is already 'celebrating' the attack (nothing is known about the identidy of the suspects - one paper reports, that one made suicide when police tried to arrest him)

There's no safety for you. You've opened the doors to hell
