Gunman shoots dead doctor at Berlin clinic, not terrorist related – police

RT

A doctor has been killed after being shot by a gunman who subsequently killed himself at a university clinic in Berlin. Police say the situation in the southwest of the capital is now under control and is not related to terrorism.

The incident happened at the Benjamin Franklin Clinic, located in the Steglitz district, at around 11:00 GMT.   

It emerged that the doctor was shot by the gunman, who later turned the gun on himself. Police said the physician was critically injured and was rushed to hospital where he was kept in intensive care. However, he succumbed to his injuries less than two hours after being shot.

Police have released a statement saying the situation is under control and the area has been sealed, adding that there is no danger at present. The law enforcement body also said it does not believe that terrorism was the reason behind the attack.

Police have also confirmed that no one else was injured in the attack and it is believed that the gunman acted alone.

The building was evacuated and secured soon after the shooting was reported.

Formed following the merger of the Freie Universitat Berlin and Humboldt Universitat, the Benjamin Franklin Clinic is part of one of Europe’s largest hospitals. There are four locations across Berlin.

    1. Hey Koyote, I saw you got a kick out of my YAJOOO comment yesterday. Well guess what? I once wrote that on the Yahoo comments and they blocked it out like it was cursing. What a joke that site is! Every other article there is either pushing the race war, sobbing for the poor jews, or spouting the gun grab agenda. Hope it sinks.

      2. I stopped posting on Yahoo back in 2012 when they blocked me out for no reason or because I was speaking to much truth. I never tried commenting on there again. When it comes to censoring comments, they are the kings of censorship.
