7th victim dies in German eatery shooting

A seventh person has died following a shooting at a Chinese restaurant in northern Germany, police said Tuesday.

The man died from gunshot wounds overnight in a hospital, the day after the bodies of three other men and three women were found at the Lin Yue restaurant in Sittensen.

Autopsies were to be carried out later in the day on the first six victims, said police spokesman Christoph Steinke. The victims' identities have not yet been released.

Police said the husband of an employee at the restaurant found the bodies when he went to pick up his wife after work; she was among the victims.
