14-yr-old boy arrested for k#lling eight of his schoolmates and a security guard in Serbia

Police operatives in Serbia have arrested a 14-year-old boy who allegedly sh%t and k#lled eight of his schoolmates and a security guard.

It was gathered that the teenage suspect took his father’s g¥n before sh%%ting his teacher and then fellow students and security guards at the Vladislav Ribnikar elementary school in the capital Belgrade on Wednesday morning, May 3.

The children who di£d were seven girls and one boy — all aged between 11 and 14, SkyNews reports.

Veselin Milic, head of Belgrade police, said the suspect had two g¥ns and two petrol b%mbs and had pre-planned everything.

Speaking at a press conference, Milic said: “He even had names of children he wanted to k#ll and their classes.

A sketch the suspect drew before the att@ck looks a bit like something from a video game, or from a horror movie. It indicated that he planned in detail, to go room by room, class by class – how to enter each classroom, and how to k#ll each child and in what order.”

A schoolgirl witness told Al Jazeera: “At first, I thought that someone was throwing firecrackers in the corridors and that it was nothing serious. But later I saw a member of security fall to the floor … I ran and I told the PE teachers about the sh%%ting upstairs, then we all went to safety and we heard more sh%%ting.”

Six children who were inj¥red are also being treated with one of them, a girl, in a life-thr£atening condition.
