Well, it had to happen here sooner or later, sad to say.

The man who shot dead eight people in a restaurant today called the crime line of the Czech commercial television station Prima before the act to complain about harassment the authorities failed to deal with, Pavel Lebduška from Prima, has told the Czech News Agency.

Prima has confirmed that before the act, the man called the Krimi zprvy (Crime News) line that is for the viewers of the newscast.

The man, aged 62, told the Crime News line that he had a gun and that he “will make his own decision,” Lebduška said.

The gunman killed seven men and one woman in the attack in a restaurant in the town. He, too, is dead.
