Four people were killed, including the gunman, and 75 hurt in a lunch-hour attack Tuesday on a busy central square in the eastern Belgian city of Liege, the prosecutor said.
The public prosecutor said a lone gunman was behind the deadly attack on a city square crowded with children and Christmas shoppers in the Belgian town of Liege.
Prosecutor Daniele Reynders said the gunman, Nordine Amrani, was among the four dead, along with a 15-year-old who died instantly, and a 17-year-old boy and a 75-year-old woman who died later in hospital.
