Police in the western German state of North Rhine-Westphalia say the condition of the injured is not life-threatening. The suspected perpetrator is still being searched for, including with the help of a police helicopter.

Authorities previously confirmed to DPA that the two crime scenes involved a hair salon and a nearby apartment building in Hagen, a city south of Dortmund.
