Gym at Spisska Stara Ves

Two people were killed and another injured after a student carried out a knife attack at a school in eastern Slovakia.

Local police initially said the suspect, an 18-year-old gymnasium student, was on the run and urged people not to approach him.

However, he was arrested a short time later. “We assure the public that all necessary measures are being taken to make you feel safe,” the police said.

They added that the teenager’s victims were two fellow students and a teacher.

Slovak media reported that the attack occurred in Spisska Stara Ves, a town of 2,000 people near the Polish border, at around 1:00 local time (12:00 GMT).

TA3 said several emergency medical crews were responding to the scene.
