A gunman suspected of shooting dead nine people at two shisha bars in a southwestern German city expressed extreme right-wing views in a letter of confession he left behind, SIA reports referring to foreign media.
The gunman's body along with another were found at his home in Hanau, police said on Thursday. Police said that the number of dead in Wednesday evening's shootings rose to nine, news agency DPA reported. Earlier Thursday, police said that eight people were killed and around five wounded. According to information received, although not officially confirmed, five Turkish citizens had lost their lives.
They said a dark vehicle was spotted leaving the location of the first attack and another shooting was reported later at a second scene, about 2.5km away. Police officers swarmed central Hanau, cordoning off the area of one of the shootings as a helicopter hovered overhead.
A car covered in thermal foil also could be seen, with shattered glass next to it. Forensic experts in white overalls collected evidence. There was no immediate information on the identities of the victims. Hookah lounges are places where people gather to smoke flavored tobacco from Middle Eastern water pipes.
