A suspected far-right extremist carried out the attacks on two shisha bars in western Germany, killing at least nine people, officials say.
Federal prosecutors are treating the case in the city of Hanau as terrorism, with authorities saying indications point to an anti-foreigner motive.
Some of those killed were believed to be of Turkish origin.
The 43-year-old suspect killed himself, police say. He was found dead at his home along with the body of his mother.
The Bild tabloid reports the suspect was a German citizen with a firearms licence, and that ammunition and gun magazines were found in his car.
Authorities are examining a video that the suspect may have posted online days before the attacks in which he expresses right-wing conspiracy theories. Bild said he had also left a letter of confession.
