A 9-year-old boy was shot and killed with a rifle by a 54-year-old man. The perpetrator pointed a rifle at a car in which the boy was with his father. After the man did not stop the car, the perpetrator discharged the firearm, and the bullet killed the boy, while his father suffered no injuries. The perpetrator then fled, and the police were notified that another citizen had come across the armed perpetrator, who discharged a rifle in the ground. The police surrounded the forestry building, where the perpetrator was hiding. After several hours of unsuccessful negotiations, the perpetrator tried to hurl a hand grenade at police officers, after which they killed him.

The media reports that before the murder, the perpetrator had walked through the city with a firearm and threatened citizens. He also stopped a car and ordered the driver to drive to his house, from where he took another rifle, ammunition and a hand grenade. The driver managed to escape and notify the police.
