(BBC) Shots have been fired in a Munich shopping centre and a police operation is under way.
Reports say the area round the shopping centre in the district of Moosach has been sealed off, but details of the incident are sketchy.
Several people are reported to have been killed, the Sueddeutsche Zeitung newspaper quotes police as saying.
The security forces have been on alert after a migrant stabbed five people on a train in Bavaria on Monday.
The authorities had warned of the danger of further attacks.
Reports speak of one attacker. Helicopters are said to be flying over the scene and workers being unable to leave their shops.
Munich police are telling people to avoid the area.
