Teenager stabs police officers in a police station in Bosnia, killing 1 and wounding another

SARAJEVO, Bosnia-Herzegovina (AP) — A minor broke into a police station in northwest Bosnia on Thursday, killed one officer with a knife and wounded another, police said.

The attack happened around 9 p.m. in the town of Bosanska Krupa. The attacker, born in 2009, went into the local police station and “totally unprovoked” stabbed the officers, spokesman Adnan Beganovic told the Associated Press.

The attacker has been apprehended and police and the prosecutors are working to determine the motive and all the circumstances of the attack, Beganovic said.

No other details were immediately available.
