Gunman attacks Jewish seminary

The gunman was later shot dead by one of the students. The attack took place in the ultra-Orthodox Jewish neighhbourhood of Kiryat Moshe in West Jerusalem. The gunman has been identified as a resident of East Jerusalem.

JPost reports that "Rescue workers recounted a grisly picture of students hiding under desks and locking themselves in classrooms to avoid being caught in the hail of bullets.

Yerach Toker, a paramedic for United Hatzola of Israel, said he saw several dead yeshiva students on the library's floor. "Some of them were still holding sacred Jewish books smeared with blood from which they were learning before they were murdered," he said."
