After an initial assessment of the crime scene, a state prosecutor told Vijesti TV that 11 persons, including two children and the shooter, had died in the Montenegro mass shooting and six more had been hurt.
Director of the Montenegro Police Zoran Brdjanin reported that a 34-year-old man with a hunting rifle shot and killed two siblings, one of whom was 8 years old and the other was 11 years old, as well as the mother of the victims, who later passed away in a hospital.
He stated that the shooting’s motivation was unknown and, while he did not identify the shooter by name, he did provide his initials, V.B.
The shooter then exited his home and murdered an additional 7 persons. A police officer was hurt during a shootout with the opposition, according to Brdjanin.
The country of Montenegro will observe a three-day period of mourning beginning on Friday evening, according to Prime Minister Dritan Abazovic.
