Several people have reportedly been wounded after an attacker opened fire on them at the Unterfoehring subway station in Munich.

A policewoman was also shot and seriously injured.

According to a report by German newspaper Merkur, the alleged perpetrator snatched the service weapon of the policewoman and shot around. He hit the cop on the head and injured four other people.

Munich Police also said on Twitter that several persons were wounded by gunshots in the attack and that the policewoman was seriously wounded.

It also confirmed the arrest of a person.

"The assailant was arrested. He was also injured. There are no indications of further perpetrators," according to another police tweet.
