“I am German.”
There are reports that the perpetrators of the Munich shootings were anti-immigration terrorists who shouted offensive remarks about foreigners before carrying out Friday’s deadly attack.
Unconfirmed eye-witness statements claim one of the shooters shouted “scheiss auslander” (which loosely translates as “fuck foreigners”) before firing indiscriminate shots at the public.
German national newspaper Die Welt also report that a local taxi driver present at the scene stated that the killer was “not foreign”.

It must be stressed that these reports are still to be confirmed at present, but one of the gunmen was said to have shouted “I am German”, whilst insulting foreigners.
