A man who drove a van into a crowd in Munster had no licence for the gun with which he then killed himself, a German security official has said.
The 48-year-old German killed two people when he crashed into the crowd outside a popular bar in the western city on Saturday afternoon. He then fatally shot himself in the van.
Police have said that an email sent to a neighbour among others late last month contained “vague indications of suicidal thoughts, but no indications of a danger to other people.”
They said there was no indication of any political motive.
