Munich police spokesman Marcus Martins says a ninth body has been found at the scene of a shooting attack in Munich and police are "intensively examining" it to see if it may be one of the attackers.
Martin says "according to my knowledge, we're looking for three suspects" in the attack late today afternoon outside a McDonald's in Munich that police say has left eight other people dead and several wounded.
Martin would not comment on the nature of the injuries to the ninth body but said it was not one of the eight victims.
It was the second attack this week in Germany. Members of Germany's elite anti-terrorism force are on their way to the scene of the Munich shooting.
