8 dead and 10 more wounded after an 18 year old student went on a rampage at Jokela High School. This was the country's second ever school shooting, and the gunman apparently posted a video on you tube hours before opening fire. The video showed a picture of the school which fragments to reveal a red-tinted picture of himself pointing a gun at the camera. The shooting happened around noon Finnish time.
