At least 10 people have been killed in a shooting at a school in south-west Germany, police say.
A number of people are also thought to have been wounded in the attack at the Albertville school in Winnenden, north of Stuttgart.
Police say the gunman, who was reported to have been wearing black combat gear, has fled into the town.
A major search is underway, and police and rescue workers are at the secondary school.

2006: A former pupil injures 11 students at a school in western town of Emsdetten before turning the gun on himself.
2002: A former pupil kills 17 people in his school in the eastern city of Erfurt, then kills himself.
"We have at least nine dead and numerous injured," a police spokeswoman said.
The editor of the local paper, Frank Nipkau, told television channel N-TV that eight pupils and two adults were among the dead.
The incident is reported to have begun around 0945 (0845 GMT).
Local media reports say the gunman was a former pupil.
About 1,000 children are thought to attend the school, in the town some 20km (12 miles) north-east of Stuttgart.
Usually the shooter/s shoots himself/themselves after the murder spree. This guy escaped into town and remains at large.

The shadow is a moral problem that challenges the whole ego-personality, for no one can become conscious of the shadow without considerable moral effort. To become conscious of it involves recognizing the dark aspects of the personality as present and real. This act is the essential condition for any kind of self-knowledge.
