HELSINKI (Reuters) - Finland already has quite "strict" firearms legislation and now is not the right time to discuss tightening it, Interior Minister Mari Rantanen said, following a school shooting this week in which a 12-year-old boy shot three classmates.
A 12-year-old boy on Tuesday brought a relative's revolver to Viertola school near Helsinki, shot dead a fellow sixth-grader and severely injured two others.
