Investigators looking into Friday's mass shooting in Munich say the gunman spent more than a year preparing his attack.
Bavarian investigator Robert Heimberger said the 18-year-old shooter, identified only as David S., visited the site of a previous school shooting in the German town of Winnenden and took photographs.
He said the shooter, who likely got his illegal weapon through the internet's "dark net" market, was an avid player of first-person shooter video games, including "Counter-Strike: Source."
Thomas Steinkraus-Koch, spokesman for Munich prosecutor's office said there is still no evidence of any political motivation to the crime, nor that the shooter killed specific victims.
Kosovo held a day or mourning Sunday for three young ethnic Albanians — two women and one man — who were among the nine people killed in the shooting.Flags were at half-staff at all public institutions. Two other Albanians of Kosovo origin were wounded in Friday's shooting.
Residents in the capital, Pristina, said they were horrified by the shooting.
This is really a big tragedy. People are speechless the way the life of those kids was cut short, without any guilt," said Bujar Vokshi speaking to The Associated Press in a Pristina street.
