One person killed, five wounded in shooting at rave in Switzerland
Police said a manhunt is under way following the incident at the annual techno party.
A massive manhunt is underway in Switzerland following a fatal shooting at a rave party in the early hours of Sunday morning. The incident, which occurred in the Aargau canton, resulted in the death of a 22-year-old woman and left five others injured. The victims, all Swiss residents, ranged in age from 24 to 27 years old. Police have cordoned off the area and are conducting a thorough search to locate the shooter, with the assistance of German authorities.
A spokesperson for the police said that a fight was a possibility, but they had not yet determined the motive for the shooting. They ruled out a terrorist attack, suggesting that the fact the rave was coming to an end made that less likely. The police spokesperson, Bernhard Graser, stated that the incident is unique in recent years and warranted a large police presence.
Witnesses with video or photos of the incident are urged to come forward and share their information with the authorities.
