Six killed in Russia, several hurt
A gunman opened fire on a university campus in central Russia yesterday and killed six people before being detained, investigators said, in the country's second mass shooting this year to target students.
Video on social media showed students throwing belongings from the windows of university buildings in the city of Perm, around 1,300 kilometres (800 miles) east of Moscow, before jumping to flee the shooter.
The Investigative Committee, which probes major crimes in Russia, initially said eight people were killed but later revised the number of deaths to six.
