Ammon News - German police shot dead a man in an exchange of fire near the Israeli consulate and a Nazi history museum in Munich on Thursday, state Interior Minister Joachim Herrmann said.

"It was a male person and we know that he acted here with a long-barrelled gun," a Munich police spokesperson said.

"Due to the intervention of the police, the perpetrator was stopped and probably died at the scene," Herrmann told reporters.

There were no indications of other suspects or incidents in the Bavarian state capital, Munich police said on X.

The occupation foreign ministry said the consulate was closed on Thursday for a commemoration of the Munich Olympics massacre and no one from the consulate staff was injured in the incident.
