At least eight people were killed and 10 wounded late Thursday in a drive-by shooting in a town close to Belgrade.
Dozens of Serbian students, many wearing black and carrying flowers, paid silent homage Thursday to peers killed a day earlier.
The tragedy also sparked a debate about the general state of the nation following decades of crises and conflicts whose aftermath have created a state of permanent insecurity and instability, along with deep political divisions. "The Ministry of Interior is appealing to all gun owners to store their guns with care, locked up in safes or closets so they are out of reach of others, particularly children," police said in a statement that also announced tightened controls on gun owners in the future.
The shooter, whom the police identified as Kosta Kecmanovic, has not given any motive for his actions.
