Manhunt in Crimea for possible accomplice in school attack
Muscles of wounded teenagers at college ‘minced’ by small metal objects packed inside bomb detonated in canteen by fellow student, top official says
An 18-year-old student, who later killed himself, was initially believed to be the only one to have been involved in the carnage at the Kerch Polytechnic College on Wednesday. Authorities have not provided a motive for the shooting, and teachers and classmates described the attacker as a shy man who had few friends.
According to his ex-girlfriend, he was bullied.
“He would say that he lost trust in people when his classmates began humiliating him for not being like everyone else,” a 15-year-old named as Zlata told RT television of Vladislav Roslyakov. “Vladislav was always telling me about his frequent fights with people around him.”
He had spoken to her about taking revenge for this bullying, RT reported Zlata as saying.
