Earlier this morning terror struck the Malmo Latin school. Two teachers were stabbed and killed by an 18 year old student of the school whose name is yet to be released. The student is in custody on suspicion of murder.

There is no apparent motive and no previous record of criminal history. 

Only about 50 people were in the building during the attack and the police had the suspect in custody within 10 minutes of the beginning of the attack. Students had to remain locked in their rooms for several hours while police swept the building for other perpetrators.

This is the third knife attack in a school in the Skane region this year. The Swedish Prime Minister Magdalena Anderson commented on the attack and said the news filled her with, “Sadness and dismay.”
