Man opens fire at Turkish wedding in Germany

 

A disturbing video has been released showing a man firing six shots into the air while sitting inside a car in Germany. The incident happened in broad daylight at a wedding ceremony in Duisburg, in North Rhine-Westphalia.

A local resident who filmed the incident told the Bild tabloid that “the party blocked the entire street,” adding that “the gunman even pointed his gun at a motorist in the oncoming traffic.”

“There were Turkish flags on display,” the witness said. Bild draws the obvious conclusion that this must have been a Turkish wedding.

By the time law enforcement officers arrived, the party was already over.

Such incidents are increasingly common, police said.
