Austria mourns victims of Graz school shooting

A 21-year-old former student opened fire at BORG Dreierschützengasse on Tuesday, killing ten and injuring several others before taking his own life. Police said the attacker, who lived near Graz and had no previous criminal record, used two legally owned firearms.

Special forces responded within minutes, evacuating the building and restoring security in just 17 minutes.

Footage showed students fleeing past armed officers. The school, located a kilometre from Graz’s centre, remains closed.
