Erfurt massacre

The Erfurt massacre occurred at the Gutenberg Gymnasium in Erfurt, Thuringia, Germany, on April 26, 2002. Thirteen teachers, two students and a police officer were shot dead by an expelled student, age 19, who then killed himself, presumably after being confronted by one of his teachers.
