Reports coming in of shootings in Munich shopping centre. How long before it drops here?
Went to Munich a couple of years ago and was shocked about how many migrants were hanging about on street corners and mithering for money. Quite intimidating, although these folk could have flown in for the day to do a job?

Munich shooting: Police say nine dead as manhunt continues
German police are engaged in a huge anti-terror manhunt in the city of Munich after nine people died in a shooting at a shopping centre.
Police are investigating whether one of the bodies is that of a perpetrator. At least 10 people have been wounded.
Three armed attackers were earlier reported to be on the run. Police urged people to avoid public places.
The attack was at the Olympia mall in the north-western Moosach district. Public transport has been suspended.
Police helicopters are flying over the city and the elite border security unit, GSG9, has been flown in.
The body of the suspected attacker was found about 1km (0.6 miles) from the shopping centre, local media reported, and police were using a robot to check it for explosives.
German news magazine Focus reported that a gunman had shot himself in the head, but investigators have not commented.
A car believed to be linked to the attack was taken away by police on a tow-truck, the magazine added.
Police, who describe the operation as "an acute terror situation", say the first reports of a shooting in Hanauer Street came in just before 18:00 (16:00 GMT).
Chancellor Angela Merkel's chief of staff, Peter Altmaier, told national TV the motive for the attack was still unclear.
"We cannot rule out that it is linked to terrorism but we can't confirm it either, but we are also investigating in this direction," he said.
A meeting of the government's security cabinet will be held on Saturday.
The Bavarian capital's central railway station has been evacuated.
People stranded by the emergency and unable to get home are being offered shelter by locals. The initiative was launched with the Twitter hashtag #Offenetür (open door).

Anyone can support a team when it is winning, that takes no courage.
But to stand behind a team, to defend a team when it is down and really needs you,
that takes a lot of courage. #18thMan

Re: Kicked Off In Munich.
Munich gunman was obsessed with mass shootings - police
The gunman who killed nine people in Munich was a student obsessed with mass shootings and had no known links to the Islamic State group, German police say.
Police who searched his room found newspaper clippings on attacks including an article entitled "Why do students kill?", police told reporters.
The killer, who was born in Munich, had a 9mm Glock pistol and 300 bullets.
Police are investigating whether he may have lured his victims through a Facebook invitation to a restaurant.
He is suspected of using a fake account under a girl's name to invite people to the McDonald's restaurant where he launched his attack.
Police also said there was an "obvious link between the gunman and Norway's mass killer Anders Behring Breivik, who murdered 77 people in July 2011.
Friday evening's attack at the Olympia shopping mall also left 27 people injured, including children.
Three of the victims were from Kosovo. The father of one of them, 21-year-old Dijamant Zabergja, was photographed holding a photo of his son near the mall on Saturday. The other two were young women.
Police say the gunman had been in psychiatric care, receiving treatment for depression.
Munich, capital of the southern German state of Bavaria, was rocked by the attack.
Flags are to be flown at half-mast across Germany in mourning and Chancellor Angela Merkel has delayed a holiday in the Alps to chair a meeting of the national security council.
People could be seen laying flowers and lighting candles outside the mall on Saturday.

Angela Merkel has let Germany down in my opinion. I go to Munich teaching and the place is beautiful and the people are fantastic.

Re: Kicked Off In Munich.
What concerns me is the way that Christian Church people welcome them in a belief that we can all live in harmony in a multi cultural society.ian b wrote:to the tune of nearly 1 million let in to Germany.

Should be more concerned the way that less of their flock are attending Church than bothering about people of other religions!
