At least two people were shot dead on a street in the German city of Halle on Wednesday, police said, with witnesses saying that a shul was among the gunmen’s targets as Jews marked the holy day of Yom Kippur.
One suspect was captured but with a manhunt ongoing for other perpetrators, security has been tightened in shul in other eastern German cities while Halle itself was in lockdown.
Two people also suffered serious bullet wounds in the attack and were being operated on, a spokesman for the city’s hospital said.
The shooter allegedly said that “the Jews are the source of all our problems.”
