Two killed in German disco shooting

International Desk: Two people have been killed and three others seriously injured in a shooting at a German nightclub, police said.

The 34-year-old suspect suffered life-threatening injuries in a gunfight with police officers outside the venue in the city of Konstanz, near the Swiss border.

They had rushed to the scene shortly after the shooting around 4:30am on Sunday.

The suspect later died in hospital. The motive behind the shooting is currently unclear.

One police officer was also injured in the exchange of fire with the suspect.

Police said special commando forces have been deployed in the city as it was not clear if the suspected had acted alone or had accomplices.

On Friday, a failed asylum seeker killed one person and injured six others in the northern city of Hamburg.
