Grazer AmoFlauf: Described perpetrator as reserved - what is now following?
A killing spree on June 18, 2025 at Borg Dreierschützengasse in Graz shaken the community and raised numerous questions. A former schoolmate of the perpetrator who wants to remain anonymous described him as reserved and not very talkative. According to Kleine Zeitung, the perpetrator was never actively looking for the conversation, which could be released in the debate about the causes and prevention measures at schools.
In the coming days, the police investigation are based on interrogations and data evaluations. The number of shots of the perpetrator has so far remained unknown because further surveys have to be carried out. As reported KURIER, the first noises were initially not identified as shots, and only after several bang noises became clear the reality of the incident. The autopsy results of the eleven fatalities have not yet been presented in writing.
school reform and security
Norbert Urabl, the deputy director of the school in question, describes the current mood as emotional and full of grief. He emphasizes the importance of regular emergency exercises, which were now crucial to sensitize students. "The pupils were informed in advance of behaviors at a killing spree," reports Urabl. These necessary precautions helped the students to react correctly in the chaotic situation.
Urabl only knew the perpetrator by name, and normal school operations currently seem unimaginable to him. Nevertheless, a gradual return to a regular school life is sought for the students who want this. The pupils should be given the opportunity to enter the parts of the school in which no killing spree took place.
social reactions and demands
In view of these dramatic events, the father of a student affected has launched a petition that demands reforms when accessing social media. Among other things, these measures should also include an age restriction. The petition initiator criticizes that existing measures such as tightening of the weapons law and access to psychological help are not sufficient, since the damage is often already done. The exact demands are available online and should indicate the need for preventive steps that go beyond the previous answers.In another framework, reference is made to the challenges of violence prevention in schools. A study by Schulpsychologie.at emphasizes certain programs that aim to address gender differences and experiences with violence at school. This type of research could become even more relevant in the coming weeks, since schools have to find strategic ways to prevent such tragedies in the future
