A Turkish man was killed and two were wounded in a shooting late last night in the heavily Turkish area of Neuköln in Berlin.

Five Turkish young adults aged 16 to 22 were chatting across from the district's clinic when an unknown attacker began firing at them. Burak Bektaş, 22, was killed while two teenagers, aged 16 and 17, were critically wounded.

Witnesses said the assailant was wearing a hoodie, but the identity of the shooter remains unknown.
