Close of candles 12. Wide of people standing near candles in front of school STORYLINE: A student at a school in Finland where another student fatally shot a classmate and wounded two others, recounted how pupils huddled inside their classrooms as tragedy unfolded. “I didn't know what was happening, really,” said Hanna Skrzypek. “I just knew that we were in danger and we had to be in a lockdown. The 12-year-old shooting suspect told police that he was bullied at school, officials said Wednesday, as a nation shocked by the attack held a day of mourning. The suspect, a sixth grader who attended the school in the city of Vantaa, just outside Helsinki, was apprehended less than an hour following the shooting on Tuesday morning. The shooter and the victims were all classmates, police said. The minimum age of criminal liability in Finland is 15 years, which means the suspect cannot be formally arrested. A suspect younger than 15 can only be questioned by the police before they are handed over to child welfare authorities. On Wednesday, Finnish blue-and-white flags were hoisted at half-staff and scores of people including parents, teachers and fellow students laid flowers and lit candles in the snowy landscape near the school building where the shooting occurred. Police said one of the wounded girls has a dual Finland-Kosovo citizenship. The deceased boy died instantly after being shot, police said. The suspect was detained in the Helsinki area less than an hour after the shooting with a “a revolver-like handgun” in his possession. The gun was licensed to a relative of the suspect who was not immediately identified. Police said he admitted to the shooting in an initial police hearing. =========================================================== Clients are reminded to adhere to all listed restrictions and to check the terms of their licence agreements.
