A 13-year-old schoolboy slit his classmate’s throat and wounded at least four people during a rampage with a hammer, knife and air pistol in Russia this morning.
HOW SERIOUS THE CONDITION IS?
Suspect Roman G was arrested after the vicious attack, in which a pupil entered the school in Chelyabinsk and began ‘randomly beating up his peers’.
A girl was rushed to hospital in serious condition and was undergoing surgery to save her life after she had her throat cut and was hit on the head with a hammer.
A second girl was also undergoing emergency surgery, and several more were injured during the attack.
BEFORE THE INCIDENT
Hours before the incident he had posted a rant on social media in which he said ‘Putin has enslaved the population’, accusing the dictator of ‘Nazism’. Investigators are still trying to understand the motive for the brutal attack.
News outlet Baza reported that the suspect ‘came to school all in black in the middle of the first lesson, but did not go straight to the classroom, but walked past and went towards the toilet.
‘A few minutes later, he ran screaming into the classroom where the Biology lesson was taking place and started waving a hammer.
‘First, he hit one of the girls on the head, then the teacher.
‘After that, Roman hit another girl and a boy, ran out of the classroom and ran down the corridor.’
