On 23 June 2016, an unidentified man opened fire at the Kinopolis cinema complex in Viernheim, Germany, in a hostage-taking incident. Several initial reports incorrectly stated that dozens of victims had been wounded. No hostages were injured and the gunman was shot and killed by the Hessian special operations police.[1][2]
Attack[edit]
The shooter was wearing a cartridge belt around his shoulder when he arrived into the complex, which is located in the small western town of Viernheim. Many moviegoers ran and screamed when they heard shots fired.[3]
Tear gas was used as police entered the cinema.[4]
