The shooter, K.K. - whom the Serbian police have in custody - took the pistol with which he committed the crime from his father, who has in the meantime also been arrested.

In addition to the weapons (he carried two pistols), the suspected perpetrator of the massacre carried four Molotov cocktails with him.

He will not be held criminally responsible for the nine murders because he has not turned 14 yet.
