Shooting Incident at Perm School: Sixth Grader Claims God Gave Instructions

A 12-year-old boy opened fire at a school near Perm, Russia, according to Gazeta.ru. It was reported that the sixth-grade student fired at least two shots from a Saiga hunting rifle. Preliminary data indicates that there were no casualties or injuries.

The shooter has been arrested, and law enforcement officials are currently in contact with him. Later, the student revealed that he took the hunting rifle from his father and fired several shots toward the ceiling and the door.

The motive behind the attack, according to the boy, was his anger and dissatisfaction with his classmates and teachers, who he claimed had belittled him. Additionally, the teenager stated that he intended to 'settle a score' with a female classmate using the weapon.

The sixth grader also mentioned that the night before, he had a dream in which God appeared to him and instructed him on what to do, prompting him to follow the guidance.
