ATTACK IN ZAGREB: Young man (19) stabs teacher and students, one child (7) dies, five injured: Teacher undergoes surgery
One child died as a result of the injuries.
Seven people were injured, including five children.
We learn from the hospital that the attacker also had stab wounds to his body when he was brought to the hospital.
Media previously reported that the attacker was a 19-year-old, allegedly a student at the school, outside which there were many police and ambulances following the attack.
As our reporters have learned, there is talk in the Prečko neighborhood that students allegedly told their parents that the attacker was dressed in black and masked, and that he visited several other students before the class in which he committed the attack.
Minister of the Interior addressed the public: "From the first report to the police, within 10 minutes the perpetrator was subdued. He fled the scene and locked himself in a nearby health center building. He began to inflict injuries on himself with a knife. The police prevented him from committing suicide".
The mother of the attacker who entered Prečko Elementary School on Friday morning and attacked children and a teacher with a knife spoke out for 24sata. She told them that he has an emotionally unstable personality, with two additional diagnoses and that he had previously cut himself. She had heard about the attack, but she still doesn't have all the information.
- I was told that the attacker was my son. This morning, my dad took him to the day hospital at nine o'clock, he went to those day hospitals again. He was in a psychiatric hospital a couple of times. A month and a half ago, he imprisoned me and my mother in the apartment, took our cell phones, keys and ended up in Jankomir again - said the mother of the 19-year-old who committed the attack.
The attacker's mother spoke out: 'We haven't slept for nights in fear for him. He was being treated, and the doctor col-bloodedly let him go'
The mother said that they slept in fear at night and did everything they could to save him. They don't know why he went to school, he attended it five years ago.
- The doctor col-bloodedly let him out so we could take care of him. He apparently left the day hospital and took a knife and did what he did. I don't know the reason. I heard he stabbed himself too - she added in 24sata.
