On 21 December 2023, fourteen people were killed in a mass shooting by a postgraduate history student at the main Faculty of Arts building of Charles University in central Prague, Czech Republic. Another 25 were injured, three of them foreigners. The 24-year-old perpetrator killed himself. Before the attack, his father was found dead at his home in Hostouň. At the time of the shooting, the perpetrator was one in a pool of about 4,000 suspects in a double murder case that took place six days earlier, 25 kilometres (16 mi) away, in the Klánovice Forest. The lead investigator confirmed that the police had not yet reviewed the perpetrator's potential as a suspect in the earlier killings when the Prague shootings took place, but evidence found in the latter event did link the two incidents. The attack was the deadliest mass murder in the Czech Republic since its independence in 1993, surpassing the 2020 Bohumín arson attack. It was one of the deadliest mass shootings in Europe since the 2015 Bataclan theatre massacre in Paris.
