At least eight people were killed Friday in a shooting rampage at a busy shopping district in Munich, Germany, that police officials said "looks like a terror attack."
As many as three attackers might be on the loose, police said. Authorities launched an intense manhunt, putting the city under virtual lockdown, urging residents to stay home and shutting down mass transit.
Nine bodies have been found in or around the shopping district, police said at a press conference. Police are trying to verify whether one of these bodies could be one of the shooters, Munich police tweeted.
