Two children under 15 years old are suspected of planning an attack on a school in central Finland, reports the news agency STT.

According to the police, they planned to kill three people at the school in Jämsä. The deed was to be carried out with knives and other tools.

The attack was to take place on Tuesday, but the police became aware of the plans on Thursday last week and were able to stop the suspects. Due to their young age, they cannot be punished.
