At least one person was injured in a shooting at a subway station in Munich on Tuesday, German police said.

The shooting occurred during a police check at the Unterfoehring subway station, police spokesman Michael Riehlein said.

He said a weapon was fired during the check but could not immediately say whether it was fired by police or by a suspect, KRMG radio station reported.

Police later tweeted that at least one person was injured.

Munich's Merkur newspaper reported that witnesses said the suspect took a police officer's pistol and then shot her, and also injured others at the scene.

Riehlein said the area had been secured and that there was no danger to the wider public.
