8 Dead in Shooting in Serbia, Day After School Massacre That Killed 9

BELGRADE, Serbia — At least eight people were killed and 10 wounded late Thursday in a drive-by shooting in a town close to Belgrade, the second such mass killing in Serbia in two days, state television reported.

The attacker used an automatic weapon to shoot randomly at people near the town of Mladenovac, about 30 miles south of Belgrade, the capital, the broadcaster RTS said early Friday. Police were looking for the 21-year-old suspect, who fled after the attack, the report said.

No other details were immediately available, and police had not issued any statements.

The mass shooting came a day after a seventh-grade student armed with pistols and Molotov cocktails ​shot and killed eight children and a security guard at his school in Belgrade, plunging the Serbian capital into grief and stunning the entire country.
