Two people have been killed and three seriously injured in a nightclub shooting in the German city of Constance, police say.

A man opened fire at about 04:30 (01:30 GMT) on Sunday, killing one person. The gunman was then shot and injured by police, and died later in hospital.

The attack unfolded at the Grey nightclub on Max-Stromeyer-Strasse.

Guests were able to save themselves by fleeing outside or hiding, police said.

A doorman appeared to have been shot as he tried to stop the attacker, witnesses told broadcaster SWR.
