+++ Message 5.9.2024, 1:30 PM +++

We are deeply shocked – shots were fired today in the immediate vicinity of the main building of our university near the NS Documentation Center and the Israeli Consulate General. An armed man was shot dead by the police. The situation is currently under control and everyone at the university is safe and well. We sympathise with all those affected and would like to thank the Munich police for their level-headed response.

The Campus Arcisstraße will remain closed today and the international ARD competition, which was due to take place at the university today, will not take place.

We will inform you here when we reopen the Campus Arcisstraße.
