BERLIN, July 30 (Xinhua) -- Several people were injured in a gun shooting early Sunday morning at a night club in Konstanz in southern Germany, local media reported.

It was unclear whether there were people killed. The police were unable to confirm a report by the local media SWR that the perpetrator(s) had been arrested.

"There were casualties in the shooting, visitors could save themselves by fleeing into the open or hiding," the DPA news agency quoted a police spokesman as saying.

The SWR, a regional public broadcasting corporation in the southwest of Germany, reported that some eyewitnesses said the gunshots were fired with a machine gun.

The police in Konstanz in the state of Baden-Wuerttemberg said via Twitter that there was no longer any danger after the shooting.
