About David Sonboly

  • On 22 July 2016, there was a mass shooting in the vicinity of the Olympia shopping mall in the Moosach district of Munich, Germany.
  • An 18-year-old Iranian-German, David Ali Sonboly, opened fire on fellow teenagers at a McDonald's restaurant before shooting at bystanders in the street outside and then in the mall itself.
  • Nine people were killed and thirty-six others were injured, four of them by gunfire.
  • Sonboly then hid nearby for more than two hours, and killed himself by a self-inflicted gunshot wound after he was stopped by police. Two reports by the Bavarian State Office of Criminal Investigation and public prosecutor's office concluded that the shooting was not political, saying Sonboly's main motive was "revenge".
  • Police later opened an investigation into his contact with the perpetrator of the Aztec High School shooting.
  • In 2019, the Bavarian Police declared that the shooting was now being classified as a "politically motivated crime" and that "the radical right-wing and racist views of the perpetrator should not be ignored."
