A student opened fire at Charles University in Prague, Czech Republic, on Thursday, killing at least 14 people and injuring more than 20.

The bloodshed occurred in the philosophy department building in the country’s worst mass shooting.

The building is near the Vltara Rover in Jan Palach Square, just a few minutes walk from Old Town Square.

It’s a busy tourist area in Prague where a popular Christmas market attracts thousands of visitors nowadays.

Prague Police Chief Martin Vondrasek said the shooter was a student, but his name hasn’t been released.

An early report said 15 people had died and 24 were hurt, but Vondrasek later said that 14 had died and 25 were injured. It could become worse as officials warned that the death numbers could rise.

Vit Rakusen, Czech Interior Minister, said police didn’t suspect a link to any extremist groups.

Police believe the gunman killed his father earlier in his hometown of Hostoun, near Prague, and planned to kill himself.

After searching his home, Vondrasek said the gunman was also suspected killing of another man and his daughter on December 15.

Police said the shooter was a student with no criminal record, but they didn’t provide any further information.

The shooter legally owned several guns as he was heavily armed and carrying a lot of ammunition on Thursday.
