An armed man covered in blood has barricaded himself in a restaurant in Germany, police have said.
It is unclear how he injured himself and what type of weapon he has on him.
Officers outside the eaterie in Saarbruecken, in southwest Germany, are trying to convince him to end the stand-off.
It is believed he is not holding anyone hostage.
He ran into the restaurant called Dubrovnik in the town centre on Sunday morning while shouting for everyone inside to leave, according to a report by German newspaper Bild.
Footage from the scene shows a police street cordon and several vehicles outside the building, including a marked police car.
Police said the man appeared to be mentally disturbed and there are no indications that it is a terrorism-related incident.
A police spokesman said the man appeared to be in an "exceptional psychological situation".
It is thought he is the son-in-law of the owner of the restaurant and is originally from Macedonia, but has lived in Germany for several years.
Some reports suggest he is a former employee.
