The suspect was armed with a 45-caliber pistol with a silencer and shot indiscriminately the victims. The officers arrived at the site, wounded during the shootout the armed person and subsequently he died. This was announced at the press conference by Servera, quoted by TASS.
"The police have done what they are supposed to do - they have given first aid and evacuated him from the building, and he has subsequently died of his wounds," Servera said.
Kills were found on each of the three floors of the building, and one shot was found in a car parked in front of the building.
Servera noted that the identity of the shooter is known but will not yet be reported because his relatives have not been informed.
Servera said he was a long-time servant in the utilities sector and described him as "unhappy", but refused to say more about what the cause of the attack might be.
