One or more people opened fire in a church in the northern German city of Hamburg on Thursday evening, authorities said, and local media reported that several people were killed.
Police previously said on Twitter that a large operation was under way in the next-door Alsterdorf district. The area is a few kilometers north of the downtown area of Hamburg, which is Germany's second-biggest city.
The German news agency dpa reported that “several” people were dead and some injured, but didn't give precise figures.
