The suspect, reportedly a 16-year-old student, was taken into custody shortly after the incident. Police say the injuries — caused by a bladed weapon — are not life-threatening. One student was stabbed in the neck, another in the hand, and a third in the waist.

The alleged attacker had posted a disturbing manifesto online, indicating premeditated intent and using AI tools like ChatGPT to prepare. His stated goal? To carry out an “exciting” act that would land him in prison for 2–4 years.

Finnish government officials swiftly condemned the violence, emphasizing the need for safe school environments and open dialogue between youth and adults.
