Suspected of murder at school in Sweden imprisoned | Great Lakes Advocate
news, the world
An 18-year-old student has been in prison after he was arrested for the killing of two teachers at one of the oldest high schools in Sweden. The suspect, whose name has not been made public, has not yet been formally charged with Monday’s murder in Malmö, Sweden’s third largest city. Malmö District Court ruled that the suspect could not access the media, receive visits or communicate with anyone either by letter or email. He accepted the restrictions, says Swedish media. Prior to the arrest hearing, his lawyer Anders Elison told Sydsvenskan that his client “regrets” his alleged actions. The suspect was not previously known to the police and had no criminal record, and the police did not reveal how the teachers were killed. A motive has not been determined. The police found the suspect and the two victims on the third floor of Malmö’s Latin school, 10 minutes after they were alerted. Lots of ambulances and patrol cars rushed to the school and armed police entered the cordoned-off building. Students at the school, which has about 1,100 students, had gathered to work on a musical and locked themselves in classrooms. The murders took place in a modern annex to the school, which was founded in 1406. It was originally intended to educate local youth in Christian doctrine and Latin. Australian Associated Press
