A teenager has killed 15 people in south-west Germany after attacking his old school with a gun.
Nine pupils and three teachers at the school were among those shot and killed by the 17-year-old.
The attack started around 9.30am in Germany when the teenager went into the school and started firing.
He killed a number of people before stealing a car and driving to a nearby town. Police caught up with him there and he was killed after a shoot-out.
The gunman hasn't been named officially, but people who live in the area in Germany have said he is called Tim Kretschmer.
The leader of Germany, Chancellor Angela Merkel: "It is unimaginable that in just seconds, pupils and teachers were killed - it is an appalling crime.
"This is a day of mourning for the whole of Germany."
While this is a very sad event it's important to remember that it's very rare and you shouldn't be worried
