The attack shocked the Nordic nation, where gun ownership is fairly common by European standards but deadly shootings are rare.http://i170.photobucket.com/albums/u280/jimgraz/The_More_You_Know.jpg

8th grader kills five boys, two girls, and the principal in Finland. He tried to shoot himself afterwards, but survived.


How was he a 8th grader at the age of 18 and according to your link the shooter did die???

How was he a 8th grader at the age of 18 and according to your link the shooter did die???Story has been edited with new information since my post. He wasn't dead at the time.

As for the age bit, the initial report said it was an 8th grade classroom in the event so I assumed it was his own class. The age of the shooter wasn't yet revealed.

The weapon he used also wasn't available at the time. It was a .22-caliber pistol.

I delivered false information from a misinformed news report. Sorry.

If only that were the case... News agencies thrive on the fact that they get the story out first. It doesn't really matter if it is somewhat inaccurate, they have to be first.

EDIT: They updated the story again. The shooter died in the hospital later.
