‘No evidence’ Munich shooter had links to ISIS

German police said Saturday they had no evidence a teenage gunman who killed nine people in Munich had any links to ISIS and described the attack as "a classic act by a deranged person."

"There is absolutely no link to the Islamic State," Munich police chief Hubertus Andrae said, adding that the suspect had been obsessed with books and articles about mass killings "linked to maniacs."

Andrae said the 18-year-old attacker's room had been searched, adding that investigations had not given any reason to believe there was more than one perpetrator and attacker had "no link whatsoever to the topic of refugees". He said there was no reason not to visit Munich or to cancel events for security reasons.

The Munich prosecutor also said the suspect -- whose name has been withheld for the time being -- had suffered depression and reportedly undergone psychiatric treatment.

Three Kosovans were among the nine killed, the foreign ministry said Saturday.

"Three citizens of Kosovo are among the victims of the shooting in Munich. Our consulate in Munich has established with the German police and the families that the three young (ethnic) Albanians (from Kosovo) lost their lives during the attack," the ministry said in a statement.

The gunman apparently acted alone as he opened fire in a busy shopping mall in Munich Friday evening......http://english.alarabiya.net/en/News/middle-east/2016/07/23/Munich-shooter-was-German-Iranian-teen.html
