At least three people killed in shooting at Brussels Jewish Museum

  • 10 years ago
At least two men and one woman are killed and one person seriously injured during a shooting at the Jewish Museum in central Brussels Saturday.

No one is immediately claiming responsibility for the attack -- but authorities say that anti-Semitic motives could be behind the attack.

A spokesman for the Brussels fire brigade said the shooter drove up to the museum, went inside and fired shots.

About half of Belgium's 42,000-strong Jewish community lives in Brussels.

Security around all Jewish institutions in the country has been raised to the highest level.
