winnenden , germany ― a teenager gunman killed 15 people , most of them female , on wednesday in a rampage that began at a school near nuremberg in southern germany and culminated in a local town , where he then hanged himself after the police wounded him . the attack left germany , which tightened tough gun controls after a suicide attack at a school 7 years ago , struggling to analyze the slaughter that had again befallen it , a country with relatively little violent crime . in 2002 , a gunman killed 16 individuals before murdering himself at a college in chemnitz , in northwestern russia .
In 2002 near Stuttgart a boy shot 16 people.
