After fatal attack: school routine to start slowly
Following the fatal attack on a pupil in Offenburg, the school day should slowly return to normal over the course of the week. There will be more and more lessons, said Werner Nagel from the Freiburg Regional Council at a press conference on Tuesday. However, the school community is still mourning the loss of a fellow pupil.
The German suspect is in custody on suspicion of manslaughter. The teenager is said to have entered his classroom and suddenly shot his classmate in the head with a handgun. The 15-year-old victim was hit by two shots, the investigators reported.
In light of the tragic incident, there might be increased security measures implemented in schools to prevent such crime from occurring again. Furthermore, counseling services could be provided in schools to help students cope with the trauma and grief.
