Seven people have been killed and several more injured in a shooting at a Jehovah's Witness meeting hall in the German city of Hamburg, police say.
They say the gunman acted alone in Thursday's attack, and is also thought to be dead. His motives are unknown.
Dramatic footage has now emerged that appears to show the suspect firing many rounds through a window of the hall.
The suspect is a former member of the religious community, aged between 30 and 40, Der Spiegel magazine reports.
