Vigils held in Germany after 9 killed in suspected far-right shooting

HANAU, Germany — Thousands of people take part in vigils across Germany after a gunman with apparent far-right beliefs killed nine people at a hookah bar and a cafe in the city of Hanau.

Hundreds of people, many carrying candles or a white rose, gather in silence in Hanau this evening to show solidarity with the victims.

Large crowds also gather in Frankfurt and at Berlin’s Brandenburg Gate, some carrying signs that read “Take racism personally” or “Never Again!” in scenes replicated across dozens of German cities.
