Austrian Tragedy: Suicide Letter & Questionable Explosive Device in Graz Gunman's Flat
Bomb with Functionality Issues Discovered in Sharp Shooter's Residence in Graz - Shooting Incident in Graz: Malfunctioning Pipe Bomb Discovered in Suspect's Residence
In the aftermath of the horrific Amok Shooting in Austria's second-largest city, Graz, the Austrian news agency APA reported an intriguing development. The authorities discovered a letter from the 21-year-old shooter, which was available in both physical and digital formats. However, according to Franz Ruf, the general director for public security at the Vienna Ministry of the Interior, this letter provided no insights into the gunman's motive.
The perpetrator, a native Austrian, had terrorized the city's high school on Tuesday morning, ending the lives of ten innocent souls and leaving eleven more injured. The attacker used two legally owned weapons: a rifle and a handgun, as per the regional police director Gerald Ortner. Speculations about the gunman's past bullying experiences circulated in the media.
A moment of silence will be observed on Wednesday at 10:00 AM to honor the victims of this heinous act. The Vienna government has declared a three-day mourning period.
