About 600 elite policemen, including anti-terror units, sealed off the village.

It’s an operation to catch the culprit of last night’s shooting spree.

The 21-year-old suspect killed a police officer and his younger sister in a schoolyard, then drove around three towns in a car and shot them.

Eight residents were killed and 14 injured.

Police arrested the suspect at a relative’s house 90 kilometers from the murder site after an overnight search and search.

In addition to the firearm used in the crime, the suspect also had illegal weapons, including four grenades and ammunition.

More than 760,000 weapons are registered in Serbia, with a population of 6.8 million.

Because of the civil war, it is not easy to estimate how many unregistered firearms there are.

Serbian President Aleksandar Vucic announced tough gun control laws following two fatal shootings.

All firearm permits of all types were suspended and 1,200 new police officers were placed in schools.

A three-day ‘national mourning period’ was declared in Serbia after the massacre at an elementary school on the 3rd.
