Gunman Detained After Shooting Near High School in Western Turkey Injures SeveralPreviousNext

A gunman opened fire near İncı Üzmez Vocational and Technical Anatolian High School in Turgutlu, Manisa province, western Turkey, injuring between eight and eleven people, including students. The suspect, reportedly a student who used a shotgun taken from his grandmother's home, was detained by police. At least two victims were in serious condition.
