Police find woman’s body at warehouse used by Liege gunman Nordine Amrani

POLICE have found the body of a woman at an address used by the gunman who went on a rampage shooting shoppers at a Christmas market in the Belgian city of Liege.

The find took the death toll from Tuesday’s carnage to six, including the killer himself.

Nordine Amrani, 33, was armed with grenades and an assault rifle when he attacked holiday shoppers at a central square in the eastern city.

His victims included two teenage boys, aged 15 and 17, a 75-year-old woman and an 18-month-old baby, who died in hospital last night.

Prosecutor Cedric Visart de Bocarme told Belgian radio the woman’s body had been found in a warehouse used by Amrani to grow cannabis.

Another 122 people were wounded in the incident.

Amrani had served jail sentences for offences involving guns, drugs and sex abuse.
