A 13-year-old student attacked his friends with a rifle and a knife: 4 injured.

There was a terrible incident in the city of Chelyabinsk, Russia this morning. A 13-year-old male student attacked his classmates with a hammer, knife, and air gun. The attacker slit the throat of a female student and injured at least four people.

The suspect, Roman G., entered the school and started attacking his classmates randomly. A female student was severely injured and taken to the hospital after her throat was slit and she was hit on the head with a hammer. Another female student was also taken to emergency surgery, and several other students were injured.

Prior to the attack, the suspect posted a message on social media accusing Putin of enslaving the people and calling him a "Nazi." Investigators are still trying to understand the motive behind this brutal attack.

The suspect, Roman G., was eventually apprehended at School No. 68 by the National Guard and taken to a psychiatrist.

Initially, it was reported that four people were injured. A 13-year-old female student is expected to be put into an artificial coma. It was stated that Valeria E., the severely injured female student, underwent surgery to save her life.

Four people - a teacher, two female students, and a male student - who were injured in the attack were taken to the hospital.

Nina Shoshina, a 57-year-old Biology teacher, was injured while trying to neutralize the attacker to protect the children. In a statement from the hospital, the teacher said that the attacker "ran into the Biology classroom five minutes before the end of the lesson." "He had a weapon and a hammer in his hand. He didn't say anything, just screamed."

Lenta news agency reported that the student brought an air gun into the classroom.
