Shooting rampage at Prague university leaves 14 dead, 25 injured

As many as 14 people were killed and 25 wounded in a shooting at a university in Prague on Thursday, the news channel reported.
In a press conference on Thursday, Czech Police Chief Martin Vondrasek said the information he had received so far indicated the shooter took his own life, but added it was not yet confirmed. He also said the suspect had not been formally identified because of the severity of his injuries.
In a later news conference on Thursday night, Vondrasek revised the number of people killed to 14, after previously saying 15 people had died. Of the 25 people injured, ten were in serious condition, the police chief said, as per the news channel.
Emergency services earlier said that nine people had been severely injured, five or six received medium-severe injuries and ten were slightly injured. The authorities have also revised down an earlier number of people injured, but said those could still change given the developing situation.
During the shooting, some students locked themselves in classrooms, the police said in an update on X. A picture shared on social media also showed several students hiding on a ledge high up the building.
