the first reports that munich police stated, they received the first reports of gunfire at this munich shopping center just before 1:00 p.m. eastern time. you're talking about shooters after that occurred on the loose for nearly an hour and a half. munich police have confirmed it's up to three shooters. they are going off of what they are told from witnesses on the scene at that shopping center. some say they saw three active shooters. some say they heard multiple, some say many gunshots. we have not yet scene anybody being taken out of that shopping center. and dan, you're still here with us, this is the situation that is becoming all too familiar with us. the timing, ahead of a weekend, on a friday afternoon we're getting these reports coming in. >> yeah, and right now the german police are going to be overwhelmed, there's no doubt about it. think of what happened after the boston bombing attack, the tsarnaev brothers. you remember how long it took them to find that one brother who was hiding in a boat in the backyard. imagine if this is four or five or even six attackers, and we don

we're just getting this from the munich police. e working on the assumption that it is terror, there are no craigs of islamic extremism involvement but they're not ruling that out. they don't know yet. a newspaper in germany suggests that is the -- an association with the far right. they say that one of the shooters was wearing the kind of boots which are associated with the far right neonazis. the man, according to witnesses, was shouting, screaming, complaining about foreigners. on the phone, former boston police which iser jed -- ed davis on what it means as we have just heard the authorities in germany and in munich are declaring a crisis situation. you're the police commissioner -- former police commissioner in boston. what does that mean? a crisis situation, sir. >> well good, afternoon, stuart. clearly there are at least one gunman and probably multiple gunman on the loose here, and -- >> they're working on three, ed. on the assumption it is three. witnesses described three people carrying guns. so we're up to three and six d

beer hall in the middle of munich. so it is a must-stop for americans and all international tourists coming through germany. this particular city in the center of munich and i would confess i was there last summer. this is a very popular place. so the concern is is not only for the german who is are in that area and who speak german, but others who don't speak german and in that area. >> i can underscore that portion of munich loaded with tourists. a lot of fun. people just kind of casually walking around going from bar to bar, restaurant to restaurant. it's a big draw for not only american tourists but people from all over the world. and our coverage we can talk about the vulnerability here. >> this is something that officials are very much concerned about. these particularly soft targets, as they are described. targets where they get large crowds of people, pedestrian traffic, particularly on a friday night where you can expect there are going to be a lot of families and people enjoying the beginning of their weekend.

again this is one of the larger shopping centers in munich. you know, this was constructed around the time of the summer olympics in munich back in 1972. there's tons of, you know, 3,000 parking spaces available as i mentioned earlier, 135 shops, three department stores, major grocery stores and clothing stores. so a lot of people bound to be in that area. of course, it's not necessarily rush hour at this point, we don't know how many people could have been caught up in this, but munich a very large city of course, the capital of bavaria. this is a very difficult time not just for germany because we've seen that attack on monday, but for europe in general. this is coming on the heels of that horrific truck attack in nice. the coup in turkey, the istanbul airport attack and it seems like every week there's some sort of development that really does terrify the population there, but again, no more details about injuries or deaths. we are very closely monitoring this, but begun, not very much we can confirm at this point except that this is a busy

the capital is munich. it's a popular state for vacationing also because it has a lot of forested areas, lakes. these beautiful old castle may be the one that everybody knows from disneyland is one of the main attractions for tourists. so i'm pretty sure that a will the of foreigners including american. s will be in the city center drinking a beer or enjoying the sunshine. >> andy, o our long-time producer based in germany. thanks. stay in touch. cal perry here in new york monitoring everything coming into us as a light rain falls at 9:40 p.m. in munich, germany. >> monitoring a local press conference that's just happened in munich. here's what police have. the mall was immediately placed on lockdown. there's 100 civilians still inside that mall. they are about to start movering those people out. they are coming out of that mall. they believe that the gunmen are working with, as they put it, a short handgun or pistol. that would seem to go with what we saw in that video from that mcdonald's. they didn't say

the whole of munich is hoping to learn quickly. situation, antive acute terror situation to use the words of local authorities, little in the way of hard facts. tom: let's cross now to germany harms,ak to rebecca member of the german parliament, joining us from berlin. what more have you got for us on what's happening at the moment? munich.ot in i'm following from a village and maybe yourg know more than i know but for since i followed the news iw since 1:30, i must admit, don't dare to judge what is the munich.n in channels,ferent news fox channel and specialized news channel, they are all in contradiction about what the says, what is witnessed commercialn the center, so at this very moment, sure whether we see an whether we seer a rampage. it's really unclear. and everything we're saying everything we're seeing reported, being very cautious in terms of the language being used. so little that is clear. i have asked others this evening, was there a feel, that it was a question of time for such an attack, given so many other countrie

important mall in the munich area. you can see the video coming in. people running away. police have told everybody, this is an ongoing incident right now. what do you do if someone shows up at a mall, shooter or shooters with a weapon and starts shooting? >> reporter: well, the problem is that malls are very soft targets and will continue to be. especially many of these malls have more than a dozen entrances and exits. they can't easily block them or set up security to them. so someone can go in there and start shooting. and it's very difficult to stop it. most of the malls that i go in here in the u.s., the security walking around aren't even armed. if you have someone come in with firearms or machetes or something like that, it's a very difficult situation and the public is vulnerable if that happens. >> i know at some malls in europe, i know at malls in israel, for example, you go through metal detectors before you go into those malls. precisely because they see those malls as very, very vulnerable, soft targets, if

this shopping center is in the northwest portion of munich. multiple roads coming in and out of there. it is a very touristy popular area of town. it is the old -- it's near where the old olympic stadium in and some of the olympic events from the '72 olympics. i'll jump on to what will was saying. the ax incident earlier in the week was in worstberg. this was is in munich. both are in the state of bavaria in the southern part of the country. it is also the area where most of the immigrants had flown through as they came up from italy and through austria. so as you go to germany today, very different than when i commanded forces in europe three years ago. there is an obvious change in the cultural patterns. you are seeing a lot more refugees and immigrants throughout the cities. german government has really distributed about 11,200,000 immigrants and refugees in the various states. the state of bavaria, which has munich and several other major cities, very popular for vacationing, and it is where most of the beer and bmws and mercedes are produc

>> reporter: i have just spoken to the police in munich and they confirmed there is a shooting in the olympics shopping center in muniche. the police are not confirming casulties to us. they say that the suspect is still on the loose, either in the shopping center or area surrounding it. there is very few details apart that the incident is not yet over according to the police in munich. they are responding in large numbers and a number of people on social media commenting on the situation in the area. we don't know yet if there are casulties or who is behind this. there is a huge alert in muntheich. and a few days after, there was was a incident in germany where a young asylum seeker attacked people on the train with a knife and axe. >> we heard that the shooter was killed, but you are saying it is more dire than that, that he is on the los and may not be in the mall. i know the mall area was evacuated and can you tell us how far out that evacuation is at this point? and if people are on lock down? what is going on there? >> the shopping mall has been cleared and police are advising a

we had 2,300 forces when the investigation peaked in munich. n the operation. this includes the criminal investigation officers. a police officer, patrol officers had contact with the perpetrator. this can be confirmed, and that was near the shopping center. a colleague spotted the perpetrator, and the perpetrator shot at him. the autopsy showed that the police actually did not manage to shoot him. this was the update for me about the procedure. mr. heinberger and mr. khort will give you more details about the investigation. mr. heinberger? hello, and welcome. we took on the investigation last night, and we intensively looked at the background and tried to clarify the circumstances. the perpetrator had a .9-millimeter weapon. it was probably illegal because the number has been scratched off. we need to try to make it visible again in order to find out where the weapon came from. this will take some time. the weapon had a rucksack with a large number of tcartridges for the shooting. over 300 bullets, a card, that's what the perpetrator had. we al

the olympia shopping center in downtown munich. all we are getting is that the shooting began at a mcdonalds inside of the mall just after 6:00 p.m. local time in germany. police have confirmed three dead. so police confirming three dead. reports as many 15 dead. sky newses our partners in london, ashley, are saying that there's report of second shooting. they've got eyewitnesses saying that there's a second shoot target marion plat stations, you have two different locations in munich. the train stags and shopping mall as well. it's a large mall in munich. it has two levels, 135 stores. the police were talking to news agency in germany saying they do expect multiple dead out of this incident. the response was quick. you've got counterterrorism officials from munich already on the ground. german police as well but they are hunting for a suspect or multiple suspects that they have not yet located. so as of now, no suspect has been captured. they don't know who. >> how many people they are looking for. they are also telling any one in

that is the situation we are covering in munich, germany. for those tuning in to the 4:00 for perhaps news on domestic politics, nobody would blame you because we all along have believed this would be the day, this would be the afternoon we perhaps would learn with the rest of the world who hillary clinton's vice presidential choice would be, and secretary clinton has wrapped up a campaign event in florida, and it was theorized perhaps during or after that event her supporters would be notified by twitter or e-mail or both the identity of our choice, and there were tentative plans for the ticket to be viewed for the first time at a florida event, after all their convention begins on monday. we don't know if the delay is mindful of what is going on in munich. you will recall international events actually interfered with the rollout of the trump-pence ticket last weekend, and led to scheduling changes, and this may be the very same case, they are mindful of the rolling breaking news coverage, though political news in the states, this being high

david: again monitoring the situation in munich. s, new report of a ninth body that was found after the shooting in the shopping center. according to munich police spokesperson, they are studying to see if the body is perhaps one of the suspected shooters. we'll keep up you updated on this story. melissa? melissa: so is the republican party developing a new image? we heard a lot of non-traditional gop topics discussed last night. >> as president my father will change the labor laws that were put in place at a time when women were not a significant portion of the workforce. at my father's company there are more female than male executives. women are paid equally for the work that we do and whether a woman becomes a mother, she is supported, not shut out. >> as your president, i will do everything in my power to protect our lgbtq citizens from violence and oppression of a hateful foreign ideology. >> i am proud to be gay. i am proud to be a republican. [cheering] but most of all, i am proud to be an american! melissa: joining me now, b

they're asking people to leave the highways near munich. they've been sealed off for a number of reasons, according to the information that i first got. the first information from authorities is they were asking to be -- asking that authorities -- that people clear the roads so they cook coo -- could get emergency services in and out. which makes sense. there is possible there's some sort of police action? it is. one of our correspondents, texted to me now that it appears that the two still pictures we have are of the same person. this is obvious to us. it appears that way to us as well. but we cannot confirm that because we don't have that information from authorities. i can show you these pictures and let you draw your own conclusion. i can look at them and say it looks like the same person. that's note not the same as knowing it. that's why i'm not reporting it because i do not know it. know we have these pictures. know that authorities tell us there are as many as three gunmen and they're on the loose. i know authorities tell us six peop

that was just put out by the munich police. r, an interesting facet to this entire attack is coming out, because as richard angle said, we are at this point where everything is nebulous. initially we had the belief this could have been isis and terrorism on the basis of the fact these attacks were reoccurring, and there's a little tidbit that rings my bell. there's a report that the gunman went to the bathroom in the mcdonald's, and came out with a firearm and specifically started killing children inside the bathroom of the mcdonald's. the eighth victim to die, by the way, was a 15-year-old german girl. that struck me as quite interesting, especially on the anniversary of the norwegian right wing extremist that mass murdered -- >> i believe it's the world's worst hmassacre in the last 50 years. >> yeah, individual massacre. >> yeah. >> and he executed children of what he believed were liberal politicians inside norway, so he would expunge norway of this, you know, this generation of liberal children who were tolerant to people w

covered bodies outside the munich shopping mall. olice have made one determination. >> this is a terrorism situation. >> reporter: who is responsible is not clear. isis, right wing extremists or others. authorities brought much of the city to a halt and continued man hunt. >> we believe there's three perpetrators. we have contradicting information, but up to three. >> reporter: shooting broke out at a mcdonald's a the popular munich mall. dozens of people fled. eyewitnesss offering what information they could. >> i went to the one of the exits and looked in his direction and he shot at two people near the stairs. i ran away. >> reporter: some saying the gunman aimed at children. >> children were sitting to eat. they can't run. >> reporter: german police began to assemble warning people to stay off the streets amid the confusion of the early hours with little intelligence about what was happening. u.s. officials were awaiting an assessment from german law enforcement and intelligence services. so far there's no credible claim of respo

munich right now under siege at the moment. and as we keep one eye on that breaking story out of munich, we do have the major averages on track to close higher for a fourth straight week. even the specter of next week's federal reserve meeting on interest rates, we have the nasdaq managing to touch a new 2016 high. that happened earlier today. the 2016 high? 5,103. the nasdaq is still charging ahead, and we do have the dow up about 38 points. that's a new record, trading at its highest level since december 29th for the nasdaq. we do have one sector pushing the markets hire, telecom, but not for what you would imagine were the reasons. verizon has emerged as the likely buyer of yahoo! assets. sources are saying that a deal may be reached in the next few days. so we have verizon moving higher by 1 president, yahoo! doing the same -- 1%. the core internet business is the real gem here. the value close to $5 billion, that's according to people familiar with the matter, so both of these companies' shares moving higher at the moment.

the u.s. consolate in munich is asking everyone shelter in place. >> the u.s. military trying to account for all of their service members and family members in munich. the police now calling it a likely terror attack with at least six people dead. three or four gunmen possibly on the loose. this is a matter of urgent concern to get it under control. all of the images captured on video. >> as the shooting broke out initially at a mcdonald's, at a popular munich shopping mall, terrified eyewitnesss offering what information they could. >> i hear the alarm and he's still killing the children. they make nothing, the children were sitting to eat. they can't run. i hear allahu akbar. this i know because i'm muslim too. it made me cry. >> a massive man hunt was quickly under way amid the confusion of early hours with little intelligence about what was happening. no one even certain here the man here in the black shirt is a perpetrator. u.s. officials were awaiting an assessment from german law enforcement and intelligence services and awaiting a credible claim of respo

the free world. sarah: police in munich say this is terrorism at this point. at is something that the united states have been -- knows very well. has there been any more response from the united states? >> no official response since it is still an ongoing situation. the press department had a saying they were in close touch with the german law enforcement and they were making sure no americans were among the victims that they do not know that yet. it is an ongoing situation and they cannot say more at the moment. interestingly enough we had of the conference here. we talked with 24 foreign ministers of defense for fighting isis as the international coalition that the united states is leading and also alleging money in order to rebuild those cities. everyone has been saying is that they are expecting more attacks around the world because they see isis on the defense of being defeated in iraq and syria which will cause more terrorism so this is a very serious concern that has been out there and it seems like they were right with their predictions. sarah: to be cl

it did not address the munich attack. spoke for about, you know, 25 minutes and never mentioned any of that she focused on donald trump and his speech at the rnc. all indications suggest as we reported last night, the short list was down to 3. tim kaine of virginia, tom vilsack of iowa and cory booker of new jersey. but reading the tea leaves it seems at any moment we will hear via text message and email that's how the clinton campaign plans to put this out. there were reports that john podesta her campaign chairman and hillary clinton herself were calling those on the short list who had not been picked. it was unusual for hillary clinton to stay behind here at the state fairgrounds after her speech was done. but she was here for, you know, i would say a good 20 minutes. and that suggested to me since she wasn't doing any interviews that perhaps she was on the phone with some of those vp picks who had not been chosen and, perhaps, speaking to that -- who she did choose. we are waiting right now. it's going to come across n

it is located in the city of munich. an see there is still that large police presence there. so several people have been killed. residents have been told to avoid the public areas. police spokesman quoted by various news agencies which includes dow jones, reuters and associated press are quoted the police as saying to avoid the area and that they are trying to still evacuate the mall. so that's what we know right now, ty. i'll keep you posted. >> sue, i'm reading probably the same nbc news flash that you have quoting a spokesperson saying, quote, it is unclear whether the suspects, plural, are still in the mall or in the area of the mall. >> right. exactly. >> so that confirms what you just said which suggests that this is by no means a resolved situation. and certainly also suggests that more than one shooter was involved here. >> that's exactly what it does suggest. i think one of the issues is you have multiple police spokespersons using not only social media but talking to traditional media. and what we're finding is

it's 1 chock in the morning in munich now. is is a direct parallel to what happened in nice in the evening of bastille day on july the 14th. so, in the midst of this uncertainty, it's obviously difficult to know there was one gunman or more than one gunman. let's get this pros prospect of civil war out on the table because it's real. >> astounding when you think that an entire city in munich is locked down right now. third largest city in germany. second time in a week that they have had something that's -- last week on the train and now this. >> this attack near the site of the munich olympics attack -- >> -- from '72? >> exactly. near the site of the munich railway station where literally hundreds of thousands of refuse we dids from the middle east have been coming through. that's the main entry point into germany over the past year it's the locust of that conflict between civilizations where you could well see something like this as the beginning, i'm afraid. >> or have someone who is just a copycat who is cruel, who is evil

erin mclaughlin, thank you very much, on the ground in munich. brian todd is out front. n, you got a chance to speak to witnesses to this horrific attack. one woman was actually inside the mcdonald's when the shooting began. what did she tell you? >> erin, this woman who we only want to call loretta. that's her first name. we want to caller this that for her safety. she saw the man in the mall. she was only a couple of inches away when she came out and his back was turned to her or she might be dead right now. her 8-year-old son saw the man load his gun inside the bathroom and he then came out and started firing on children. she also gave an account on what the man said. >> i hear this allah akbar. allah akbar. i know this because i am muslim, too. i hear this, and i only crying, screaming and take my children and go out. >> does that mean this man is an islamic terrorist? maybe not. there was a verbal exchange with the man who matches the description of the shooter. it captures an intense conversation which ends in gun fire. in that conversation the shooter does not espo

. >> coming out of the munich germany, police confirm the 18-year-old suspect in the shooting rampage was born and raced in munich. there were no links to the islamic state, but there was a book on shooting. >> reporter: this cell phone video capturing the moments as shots were fired. you can see at least one gunman aiming at innocent bystanders. a deadly shooting at a place engrained in the hearts of germans and people all over the world. shortly after 6:00 p.m. police say a person opened fire at the olympia mile the same site of the munich olympic massacre it was during september 25th 11 israeli athletes were taken hostage and killed by the terror group known as black november. people were scene fleeing the scene as special forces move into position outside the mall. >> we know at this point it's a mall which unfortunately is a very easy target. >> reporter: this is the second attack in germany in less than a week. on monday, a migrant teen attacked passengers on a train 180 miles south of munich. >> germany is one of our closest allies, well pledge the support they may need. >> rep

that's the official line coming from german police. munich is under lockdown tonight, we should say. but at the same time, special forces have landed in munich to continue the search for these three gunmen. witnesses say they saw three gunmen holding a short rifle. but again the reports have been very difficult to kind go through. what happened, the shooting we have seen happened at the olympic shopping center. this is in the center of munich. it's two levels. 135 stores. this is the central tourist area in munich. this was a friday even when this happened. it was 6:00 p.m. local time. the streets west virginia crowd. we have been told that the mall itself has been cleared of victims. there were concerns some of the victims were still in there. with the death toll, 9. 8 victims. the 9th possibly a short. they are still looking for three shooters and most of the highways north of munich have been shut down. we are getting some statement, donald trump just released a statement saying our prayers are with all those affected by the horrible attac

that has now been debunked. >> well, it's unclear based on what the munich police chief said. he said it's either one of two things. he says it's either a shooting rampage or terrorism, and he's still waiting to assess that based on what they find in the electronics, which would be the phones and the computers. >> thanks so much, catherine herridge. joining us now with more, the author of defeating jihad, dr. sebastian gorka, and colonel oliver north. i want to go to donald trump's speech last night. this is a shorter version of hillary's legacy of failure because it's so appropriate in light of assassinations of police officers, which they're now being ambushed as they lie in wait, and then similarly every other day, if it's not that, it's a terror attack. listen to donald trump. >> isis has spread across the region and the entire world. libya is in ruins, and our ambassador and his staff were left helpless to die at the hands of savage killers. egypt was turned over to the radical muslim brotherhood, forcing the military to retake control. iraq is in chaos. iran is on the pat

the u.s. consulate in munich advised americans to stay off the streets.o i think what we're seeing here is the german police were in a sense panicking because they're expecting an attack, but i completely agree with paul and the fact that he committed suicide and the fact that he's an iranian rarely are involved in these attacks and he was ranting on and on. it seemed like a random attack, a psychopath and going back to the german reaction they are clearly waiting for something to happen and that is why they reacted this way. >> juliette, there is a lot of concern about germany as i said before with barbara, being next in the cross fire. >> yeah, and they anticipated just picking up on what bob said, a lot went right today. it was a horrible day, but to the extent that there is a train of local and federal law enforcement, the minute this happened, they don't know what's going on. they don't know the motivation. it could be ten guys or it could be one and it could be isis motivated or it could be something else and getting the shopping mall cleared and ma
