"The shooting at a school in Kauhajoki comes less than a year after the 
Scandinavian country was shocked by the murder of eight people at a school by a 
gun-weilding teenager.

Pekka-Eric Auvinen, 18, killed seven fellow pupils and the headmistress at 
Jokela High School in Tuusula,
30 miles north of the capital Helsinki and around 200 miles from Kauhajoki 
where the most recent shootings took place.

Auvinen turned the gun on himself while surrounded by heavily armed police in 
November last year and died later in hospital.
He carried out the killings after uploading a film titled Jokela High School 
Massacre to YouTube, the video-sharing website.

The film had similarities to the video posted to an American television station 
by Seung-Hui Cho,
the student who killed 32 people at Virginia Tech in April last year."
