A 24-year-old student of Czech nationality climbed onto the roof of the Faculty of Arts at Charles University in Prague and fired, killing 14 people and wounding 25 (PICTURES and VIDEO). He then committed suicide or was perhaps eliminated by the officers who rushed to the scene. His name is David Kozak (THE PROFILE), 24 years old, Czech, student at the same university but at the art faculty. That morning he had killed his father in the Kladno area, about thirty kilometers from the capital. “There is no indication that this crime has any connection to international terrorism,” said Czech Interior Minister Vit Rakusan. The massacre was announced in a kind of diary that the murderer had written on Telegram in recent days. “Let me introduce myself, my name is David and I want to take part in a school shooting and possibly commit suicide… I always wanted to kill, I thought I would become a madman in the future,” but “I realized it “It's more convenient to commit a mass massacre than to be a serial killer,” Kozak wrote on the social network. He said he was inspired by Alina Afanaskina, a 14-year-old Russian girl who shot a classmate in early December, wounded five other people and then shot herself. Another episode is also a source of inspiration: the school shooting in Kazan, Tatarstan, in May 2021, in which nine people were killed, including seven students, and more than 20 were injured. In view of the massacre, the police are working on the theory that the university attacker was also responsible for the deaths of two people in the Klanovicky forest near Prague last week.
