Sixteen elementary school children and one teacher were shot and killed in the Dunblane Massacre in Scotland. The shooter, 43 year old Thomas Hamilton, drove to the school in the morning on march 13th. He thereafter cut the wires to the telephone at the school before endring the school building. When he was about to be confronted by the PE teacher in the gymnasium started he shooting at random. He injured 32 people, killed sixteen 5-6 years old children and one teacher before he took his own life.
Two new gun laws were passed in the UK after the massacre which effectively ended the ownership of private handheld guns illegal in the UK.
