A 24-year-old student opened fire at the faculty of arts at Charles University on Thursday, killing 13 people and then himself. Another person died in hospital later. It is one of the the worst shootings in the country in decades. The president of the Czech senate, Miloš Vystrčil, told reporters that avoiding such tragedies was 'up to every one of us ... it's about how we raise our children and grandchildren'.
