Moscow: In a shocking incident of juvenile crime, a 14-year-old girl went on a shooting rampage at a school in Russia’s Bryansk on Thursday.

She opened fire at her classmates, shooting dead one of them and wounding 5 others before killing herself, police said.

“According to preliminary investigation, a 14-year-old girl brought a pump-action shotgun to school, from which she fired shots at her classmates,” Russia’s Investigative Committee said in a statement.

It was her father’s gun, agencies said.

Police said the injured children were rushed to a medical facility for treatment.
