Munich police called the mall shooting "suspected terrorism" in a statement but did not elaborate on who might have been behind it. The Islamic State group claimed responsibility for the train attack, but authorities have said the teen likely acted alone. In the U.S., President Barack Obama pledged to provide Germany with whatever help it might need to investigate the mall shooting. Police officers point their weapons outside the Olympia mall in Munich, after several people had been killed in a shooting. Munich police spokesman Marcus Martins said a ninth body had been found and police were "intensively examining" whether it might be one of the suspects.
