Police said the gunman was a 17-year-old former student dressed in military gear.  Map of the area »

Authorities had sealed the town off and launched an intense manhunt for the man they described as 1.80m (5'11") and heavily armed.  Watch more about the shootings »

"It is a small town, an idyllic town," said Frank Nipkau, the editor in chief of local Winnenden Zeitung newspaper. "The town people are devastated and they can't understand why this is happening in this town."

"Police are coming through the whole time. They're obviously looking all over town for him," said Roberto Seifert, who works at a company next to the school. "We've never had anything like this," he told Reuters.com by phone.  CNN's Charles Hodson looks at Twitter reports » CNN

This is terrible for parents, to be informed that your kid is dead or wounded because of an amok killer. Will our school includes during an emergency drill aside from fire, earthquake, amok killing drill?

Teen gunman dead after killing 15 at German school


WINNENDEN, Germany – A 17-year-old gunman dressed in black opened fire at his former high school in southwestern Germany on Wednesday then fled in a hijacked car, killing at least 15 people before police shot him to death, state officials said.

The gunman entered the school in Winnenden and opened fire, shooting at random, police said. He killed nine students, three teachers and a passer-by outside the building, officials said.

"He went into the school with a weapon and carried out a bloodbath," said regional police chief Erwin Hetger. "I've never seen anything like this in my life."

Triggering a land and air manhunt, he hijacked a car, freed the passengers and drove about 25 miles (40 kilometers) before police found him. When confronted, he killed two bystanders in a shootout with police before he was slain, Baden Wuerttemburg governor Guenther Oettinger said. Two officers were seriously injured, but there was no immediate information on other casualties.

Four hours after the shootings began, police announced the teenager's death.

It was the nation's worst shooting since another teenage gunman killed 16 people and himself in another high school in 2002.

Concerned parents quickly swarmed the school, which was evacuated.

Police have have identified the gunman only as Tim K, who graduated last year from the school of about 1,000 students.

The German government was "deeply shocked and incensed about the appalling killing spree," Ulrich Wilhelm, a spokesman for Chancellor Angela Merkel, said in Berlin.

In 2002, 19-year-old Robert Steinhaeuser shot and killed 12 teachers, a secretary, two students and a police officer before turning his gun on himself in the Gutenberg high school in Erfurt, in eastern Germany.

Steinhaeuser, who had been expelled for forging a doctor's note, was a gun club member licensed to own weapons. The attack led Germany to raise the age for owning recreational firearms from 18 to 21.

Such wanton violence.

There was a case in Illinois where a confused truck driver shot and killed a church pastor. The pastor deflected the first bullet with the bible, but additional bullets silenced the reverend's life.

My personal condolences to the victims and their families.

I was so sad because the children should be in school and they should be back home safe and sound.
The children interviewed were so confused why it was announced to lie on the floor "Achtung Amoklaeufer". 9 students and 3 teachers were dead and the youth further killed 2 persons in an Car Shop. A couple of police officers were injured too.
The young killer and his father are members of shooting club, that is a sad fact that he was able to hurt and kill  a number of people.

The teen gunman who killed 15 people in a shooting rampage in two small German towns told someone in an Internet chat room hours before the attacks that "he'd had enough."

 "I'm fed up with this bloody life," a German official quoted Tim Kretschmer as writing early Wednesday.

Heribert Rech, interior minister of the state of Baden-Wurttemberg, told journalists Thursday that media reports indicate a teenager from Bavaria reported the Internet conversation to his father.

According to Rech, Kretschmer continued: "Everyone laughs at me. No one recognizes my potential. I mean this seriously. I have got a weapon here and tomorrow I am going to go to my former school and give them hell.

"Maybe I would escape, keep your ear to the ground. You'll hear from me tomorrow morning. Just notice the name of the place, Winnenden. Don't say anything to the police."

The youth who was reading the comments didn't take the message seriously, Rech said, and responded "TLL," which translates to "laughing out loud," or "I'm splitting my sides with laughter."

"I need to see some pictures before I believe it," the teenager added.

The portal is owned by someone in the United States, and measures have been taken to preserve the conversation, Rech said.

Some of the children with cellphones were able to sent messages outside and tell their predicament; some used twitter . Some warned not to come 2 km radius in this area. Some relatives were asking what really is happening? Since twitter is not much yet in used as in the USA, the ethic use of twitter was put in question. Was it correct to use this form of relaying data? How far could journalism uses this media, which is a possiblity of giving false informations.


the weapon used which is a licensed gun under the name of his father
ps
Twitter is a social networking and micro-blogging service that enables its users to send and read other users' updates, tweets, which are text-based posts of up to 140 characters in length. Updates are displayed on the user's profile page and delivered to other users who have signed up to receive them. Senders can restrict delivery to those in their circle of friends (delivery to everyone being the default). Users can send and receive updates via the Twitter website, SMS, RSS (receive only), or through applications such as Tweetie, Twitterrific, Twitterfon and Feedalizr. The service is free to use over the web, but using SMS may incur phone services provider fees.Wikipedia

Tim Kretschmer fired 100 shots last Wednesday 11 March 2009.
The German teenage gunman who killed 15 people on Wednesday shot one of his victims at a psychiatric clinic where he was to be treated for depression.

Tim Kretschmer was treated at another clinic in nearby Weissenhoff between April and September before his care was transferred to the centre in Winnenden.

But he never resumed the outpatient therapy sessions, investigators said.BBC
