Title: Finland gunman 'in fatal rampage'
Post by: Fuzzy on May 26, 2012, 11:00:52 am
"A gunman fired from the rooftop of a house in a southern Finnish town, killing one person and injuring eight others, the authorities have said.

Police arrested an 18-year-old man suspected of the shootings in Hyvinkaa, 50km (30 miles) north of Helsinki.

An 18-year-old woman was killed in the incident, and a police officer was among the wounded.

Some of the injured were said to be in a serious condition and have been taken to Helsinki for emergency treatment.

Local media reported that a man in combat fatigues opened fire on crowds in the early hours.

MTV3 channel said the man used a rifle and fled shortly after the incident.

The police said the suspect was detained several hours later, and offered no resistance."

Well an 18yr old wouldn't really care about politics so it's not that, maybe he got high for the first time.
