A man wielding a sword and a firearm killed a woman and wounded nine others Tuesday at a vocational school inside a shopping center in central Finland, police said. The attacker was seriously wounded after police opened fire, and he was taken into custody.
Police didn’t give the suspect’s age but said he was born in 1994 and that he was a Finnish national without a prior criminal record. He was a student at the Savo Vocational College, which occupies the shopping center’s second floor. Police wouldn’t provide further details on the woman who was killed, but Finnish newspaper Keskisuomalainen said she was a student at the school and “the primary target” of the dark-clad attacker.
