The guy is still on the loose according to radio Top. The incident is not believed to be terrorism related.

Tom | | | | | My (limited) observation of Switzerland for "going postal" events would suggest yes.
What I recall is something like the following
- kill family
- kill boss
- kill self
No unnecessary collateral damage as it were.

Identity of the suspect is apparently known. They rule out an act of terrorism. Not known if he was going postal (attack happened in an office building) or a relationship related.
If you know the whereabouts of the man you can call Schaffhausen Police on: 052 624 24 24 http://www.shpol.ch/News.84.0.html?&...424bedc9e32ab3 |

The police released a "mug shot" of the suspect. http://www.20min.ch/panorama/news/st...ausen-29448559
Incident happened in an office of CSS insurance.
