At least 14 people were killed, and 25 others sustained injuries in a mass shooting at the Charles University in Prague, Czech Republic, on Thursday. The shooter, David Kozak, 24, lived in a village almost 20 km outside Prague and was getting his Masters Degree in Polish History at Charles University. He was an "excellent student", Prague Police Chief Martin Vondrasek said. He legally owned several guns and was heavily armed during the incident. The Police Chief said what he did was a "well thought out and horrible act." Kozak is suspected to have also killed his father in the nearby town, Houston, before going on a killing spree in Prague. He talked about planning a school shooting on the messaging app Telegram, treating his channel like a "diary" of his life before the shooting. "I want to do school shooting and possibly suicide," he wrote in a post, as per The Telegraph, adding, "I always wanted to kill. I thought I would become a maniac in the future."
