Three of the injured are in serious conditions, and some children were wounded, Andrae said.

He said that it was unknown whether there was any Asian among the victims.
A total of 2,300 policemen and special forces were deployed in the action after the attack, including forces from neighboring federal states and Austria, according to Andrae.
