Germany Shooting, 4 People DEAD

Four people have died after a shooting and an explosion in southwestern Germany. The shooting took place at a neighboring hospital; the Germany shooting is believed to be linked to an apartment building explosion on the same area that also took place today.

It has been reported that one police officer was seriously wounded during the shooting.
The Associates Press reports:
“Two people were found dead in an apartment building that burst into flames after an explosion Sunday afternoon, Loerrach prosecutor Dieter Inhofer told ZDF public television.
Another woman, allegedly armed with a weapon, was seen running from the blast into the neighboring St. Elisabeth hospital, where she reportedly opened fire, killing a member of the hospital staff, Inhofer said.
The woman then turned her gun on officers responding to the shooting and was killed in an exchange of gunfire, Inhofer said. One police officer was seriously wounded, Inhofer said, but authorities believe there were no other victims in the hospital.”
Investigations are underway to determine what was the motive behind the shooting.
