Transcription

Attack

The attack began in a classroom at Savo Vocational College, located in the premises of the Herman shopping mall. Students in the classroom described how Marin arrived to class with a "long bag", took out a longsword and began stabbing people.[1] Police were alerted at 12:29. The attack lasted for at least eight minutes, during which Marin stabbed ten people. The only fatality was a 23-year-old Ukrainian-born woman who was a student at the college. During the attack, a fire was started in the building, presumably by Marin, but it was quickly extinguished.[2] The attack ended when a policeman shot and severely wounded Marin, who was sent to the Kuopio University Hospital for treatment. The policeman was also wounded.[3]

Perpetrator

Joel Otto Aukusti Marin (born 1994) was a student at Savo Vocational College. The police found several incendiary devices similar to a Molotov cocktail when they searched Marin's apartment after the attack.[4] Based on preliminary information, he had no previous criminal record.[2]

Marin had moved to Kuopio from the municipality of Siilinjärvi at some point after matriculating in 2014.[5] He had been regularly bullied since primary school for reasons such as his clothing and being overweight. He was described as quiet and lonely.[6] Marin had participated in shooting courses at the Kuopio Shooting Club.[7]

Aftermath

The Finnish Parliament (eduskunta) held a minute-long moment of silence the day after the attack to honor the victims. Finnish Prime Minister Antti Rinne called the violence "shocking and completely unacceptable"[8] and visited Kuopio on 4 October.[9] In November 2020 the perpetrator was sentenced to life imprisonment.[10]
