Heavily armed police cordoned off the lower secondary school, with some 800 students, in the city of Vantaa, just outside the capital, Helsinki.

Finland is already reaping the rewards of NATO membership. May the burgerification of Finland begin!

    The USA vassal state, NATO-Finland, is becoming every day more like its owner. The fascist ghoul government shed crocodile tears accompanied by thoughts and prayers. PM Orpo said children’s (mental health) wellbeing is their top priority. Oh yeah? Really believable, when all this fascist government is doing is austerity, kicking the poor who already were suffering and suffocating the working class. At least IMF will be delighted.

        Yeah it’s in the article:

        The weapon used in the shooting was a registered handgun that was licensed to the suspect’s relative, Detective Inspector Kimmo Hyvärinen said.

        Also seems like they are relatively lax with guns:

        In the Nordic nation of 5.6 million, there are more than 1.5 million licensed firearms and about 430,000 license holders, according to the Finnish Interior Ministry. Hunting and gun-ownership have long traditions in the sparsely-populated northern European country.

        Responsibility for granting permits for ordinary firearms rests with local police departments.

    This is the best summary I could come up with:

    The suspect was later arrested, police said.

    Police said the suspect was arrested in the Helsinki area later Tuesday.
