Berlin:
Germany cannot confirm that the shooting attack in Munich in which at least ten people were killed on Friday was an act of terrorism, Chancellor Angela Merkel's chief of staff said.
Police in Munich said ten people had been killed in the attack, including a dead body found near the scene. They are trying to verify whether the body is that of one of the attackers.
"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," Peter Altmaier said on German television.
He added that the security cabinet would hold a meeting midday on Saturday to assess the situation.
