It isn't in accordance with news coverage and police reports. Perpetrators still at large, armed with rifles, not handguns. Also, I may repeat what a Munich police spokesman said earlier this evening. There's a lot of bullshittery going on on social media, binding their otherwise needed forces to investigate rumors.
Well I can only go by what I saw, and I'm not going to ask my husband to post the link here if the police have asked people not to. It could have been faked deliberately in advance to spread confusion. I couldn't understand much of the German at all because there was more than one person shouting across each other.

One can only assume you were bullshitting.
That's a bit much. You didn't require any kind of evidence at all before you called the gunman(men) "Islamic scum."
Heat of the moment. It's looking to be a far-right attack now, and if you had read the whole thread, you would have seen that I later said "I guess we'll see what the police say."
Now. I'd like to see that video.

The authorities seem to have pulled the shutters for the moment. Understandably so if there's a manhunt going on. No new reports on live tickers.
So, all the speculation is useless until they have them.

Fair enough, emotions running high can make folks jump to conclusions.

Okay, well quite a few people are saying that the gunman in the video spoke "broken" German. Is that true?
