The boy broke into the history class and started shooting at the students. One child is already on the operating table. He has head injuries and his life is in danger.

On the occasion of this terrible event, the Ministry of the Interior issued an official announcement.

"In the shooting that took place this morning at the "Vladislav Ribnikar" Elementary School in Vračar, eight children and a security guard were killed, while six children and one school teacher were wounded and are currently being cared for in the Emergency Center and Tiršova. A student of this school, K. K. (2009) who is suspected of having committed this crime was found and arrested in the schoolyard. All police forces are still on the ground and are intensively working to shed light on all the facts and circumstances that led to this tragedy," the statement said.

Just to recall, first there was information that the history teacher was killed, but that is not true.
