<p>Two US Air Force personnel have died after shots were fired at a bus carrying US military staff at Frankfurt airport.</p>
<p>An airport spokesman said the shooting &#8220;near or on&#8221; the bus took place in front of Terminal 2 at continental Europe&#8217;s second-biggest airport hub. He added that the bus driver and a passenger were killed, and two people suffered serious wounds and another light injuries.</p>
<p>US Air Force Europe spokeswoman Major Beverley Mock confirmed that all four victims were airmen. She added that German police have arrested a suspect over the shooting and she could not release any further details on the victims until their next of kin have been notified.</p>
<p>The two men killed were said to have been based in Britain.</p>
<p>German Chancellor Angela Merkel said her sympathies were with the victims and their families, and pledged that Germany would do everything in its power to investigate the crime. &#8220;It is a terrible event,&#8221; she said.</p>
<p>Kosovo Interior Minister Bajram Rexhepi said the gunman was Arif Uka, a Kosovo citizen from the northern town of Mitrovica. He said: &#8220;This is a devastating and a tragic event. We are trying to find out was this something that was organised or what was the nature of the attack.&#8221;</p>
<p>The US military has several major bases in the Frankfurt region, often used as a logistical hub for operations in Afghanistan or Iraq.</p>
