BREAKING: 50 Wounded - Heavily Armed Man Opens Fire - SWAT on Site

[Editor’s note: this story has been updated since its original publication.]

The world just keeps getting crazier.

We’ve had two ISIS inspired attacks against us in America – but we’re lucky compared to our European neighbors.

Not even two weeks since the Pulse nightclub massacre another potential terrorist attack is underway. Zero Hedge just reported that:

Witnesses are reporting multiple shots fired as Bild reports a heavily-armed man is at large in a cinema complex in Viernheim, Germany. The armed man has barricaded himself in the center and SWAT are on their way… multiple victims reported.

Luckily, there have been no fatalities confirmed yet, but some have been wounded.

It is currently unknown if ISIS is responsible for the attack, and there is currently no talk about it on ISIS’ various terrorist channels.

Germany has been extremely generous in welcoming in refugees from Syria, apparently showing no concern for terrorists concealing themselves among the crowd. If this is such an attack, will this finally be what knocks some sense into them?

Likewise, those wishing to blame the recent attack in Orlando should know that gun control in Germany is among the strictest in the world. The same goes for France, which saw a similar ISIS attack against a nightclub there.

UPDATE: 11:15 eastern:

*Update: 12:30 pm ET.*

The gunman in the attack is now dead, and the gun is reportedly to have been a fake.

NYPD UPDATE: Incident at movie theater in Germany had NO CONNECTION to terrorism. Suspect emotionally disturbed. Gun may have been fake.

So apparently, what appears to be the case, is that the injuries sustained by upwards of 50 people may have been inflicted by the German police who stormed the cinema. This has yet to be confirmed though, but this appears to be a plausible scenario.

This story is still ongoing. Stay tuned for updates.
