The identities of six employees shot dead at a youth welfare facility in northern Germany have not yet been established, police said on Tuesday.
A police spokeswoman said the identification process was still under way. The victims were four women and two men.
A 45-year-old man is suspected of opening fire on the victims on Monday in the city of Stade, west of Hamburg.
Contrary to earlier reports, there were no further injuries, police said.
Emergency services found four people dead at the facility, a mother-and-child residential care home. Another person was resuscitated at the scene, but unsuccessfully. A sixth victim died in hospital.
The two people initially reported as injured were those later confirmed dead, the spokeswoman said.
Police believe the attack was probably linked to a custody dispute.
The suspect had an appointment at the facility concerning custody of his 3-month-old daughter, together with many of those he is alleged to have killed, police said.
According to police, all of the men and women killed were employed at the youth welfare facility. The child's mother, a 34-year-old woman, and the 3-month-old child were not among the victims.
It was initially unclear what would happen next with the main suspect, whom police arrested shortly after the attack.
Authorities said the suspected gunman was born in Germany and has Turkish roots. He comes from the Hanover area and was known to police, but was not considered violent.
Police also arrested a 65-year-old woman who was driving the getaway vehicle.
Lower Saxony Interior Minister Daniela Behrens described the attack on Monday evening as an isolated case that had no connection to previous incidents.
German Chancellor Friedrich Merz also expressed his sympathy.
"The news from Stade is profoundly shocking," Merz wrote on social media platform X.
