Two eyewitnesses in Kerch college have told RT there was intensive gunfire around the time a bomb explosion in a college, with multiple masked gunmen running around the building and killing students.
“There was a blast, all the glasses shattered. And then armed people started running around, opening doors and shooting at everyone,” a college teacher told the investigators, according to an RT source in the law enforcement.
A student told RT he saw masked men armed with assault rifles running out from a boiler room just after the blast.
“There were many of them, but I can’t say how many. They shot at students and teachers, everyone in their way. I doubt they hit many, I saw one or two people. They were also tossing explosives,” the student said.
Another college employee, Natalya, who spoke to RT after being treated for an injury in hospital, said the gunmen probably got in from the back door.
“The fence there can be easily climbed over. There is no camera either, no secure door,” she said.
The blast happened on the ground floor of the building while the gunfire happened on the second floor, witnesses said.
According to preliminary reports, the attack started with a powerful blast of an improvised explosive device, which was filled with metal fragments to increase lethality. The attack resulted in at least 10 people killed and 50 others injured.

18 year-old student of the college who police now say shot himself on the second floor of the building after carrying out his rampage.


at least 19 lives
classification changed from terror attack to multiple homicide.

"The man was quickly identified as Vladislav Roslyakov — an 18 year-old student of the college
who police now say shot himself on the second floor of the building after carrying out his rampage.

It turned out that little more than one month ago, on September 8, Roslyakov had received a permit for a 12 caliber rifle.
He bought 150 rounds of ammunition for the weapon just a few days before he would walk onto his college campus and murder 19 people.

Then came the reports about this man and the kind of person he was.
Quiet, closed-off, uncommunicative and interested in maniacs and serial killers, his classmates said.
His parents, they explained, had divorced not long ago.
He and his mother had left his father and lived together in a rented apartment.

In a cruel twist of fate, Galina Roslyakova, the killer’s mother, a nurse who works at the Kerch Oncology Center,
was there to admit patients wounded by her own son.

Globalized senseless violence on social media helped spawn Kerch shooting — Putin

According to the Russian Kommersant newspaper, the teenager 'grew up in a rather poor family' with a disabled father.
The paper said Roslyakov's mother is a Jehovah's Witness - a Christian organization considered 'extremist' and banned in Russia.
His mother, Galina Roslyakova, a nurse in Kerch Cancer Clinic where some victims of her son's violence were brought,
was said to have been among those who provided first aid to victims.
