Editing Pekka-Eric Auvinen (section)

=== The Jokela High School Massacre ===
At 8:37 a.m., Auvinen missed his first class and was surfing on the Internet. At 9:33 a.m., he uploaded his final video called "Jokela High School Massacre - 11/7/2007". The video shows an image of Jokela High School, before fading to two red photos of Auvinen with his gun. The song "Stray Bullet" by KMFDM is playing in the background throughout the video.

Pekka Eric Auvinen entered Jokela High School on November 7th, 2007 at 11:40 am., armed with a SIG Mosquito .22 calibre semi automatic pistol. After having missed his first scheduled class, Auvinen began the deadly massacre on the first floor in the school's main hallway. At approximately 11:42 in the same hallway, Auvinen encountered and killed a student before moving on to the lavatories and shooting another two students. 

Having heard the gunshots, the school nurse contacted emergency services. Unfortunately, her actions did not go unnoticed and she was chased and murdered by the perpetrator soon after another student was killed outside of the lavatories. Another student was also fatally shot during this altercation.

After being informed of the shooting by another teacher, head teacher Helena Kalmi instructed Jokela students via PA system to barricade and stay put inside of classrooms. Auvinen reacted to this by firing sporadically a total of 53 times whilst shouting. During this time, the shooter encountered the mother of a student attending the high school but ultimately spared her. Afterwards, Pekka Eric Auvinen attempted to invade a classroom but was unable to and instead shot his weapon three times underneath the door, hitting a student in the toe.

Auvinen continued his rampage by trekking to the second floor of the school, where he encountered two students sitting together on a bench. One of the students was fatally shot whilst the other escaped unscathed.

Auvinen briefly ceased fire and instead began pouring two-stroke engine fuel on the walls and floors of the corridor. Luckily, he was unsuccessful with his intentions of igniting said fuel. After this failed attempt, Auvinen returned to the first floor of the school where he had began his rampage and made his way to the canteen. Precautions were made, however, and the sliding glass doors that served as an entrance to the canteen were locked. Auvinen shot through the glass after demanding to be let in and receiving no response. By this time, everyone hidden inside had safely escaped to the other side of the canteen and were able to hide in rooms behind the kitchen. Everyone who previously resided in the canteen survived the shooting entirely unscathed.

Meanwhile, Helena Kalmi left the interior of the school alongside the high school's education welfare officer. While talking on the phone and waiting outside of the building, Kalmi encountered a cursing Auvinen, who had also emerged from the building. After attempting to persuade the gunman to surrender, Kalmi was shot by Auvinen a total of seven times, fatally wounding her. During this time, the education officer who had previously accompanied Kalmi guided rescue vehicles who were arriving at the school.

After his encounter with Helena, Auvinen reentered the school through the first floor and ventured around the vicinity, knocking at classroom doors before successfully entering a comprehensive-school classroom that was occupied at the time. Luckily, everyone inside of the classroom was spared as Auvinen had apparently only entered the classroom to bark orders at the students, instructing them to vandalize and demolish school property.

During this time, first responding police officers and paramedics who had arrived at the school converged together at the area of the inner court. Auvinen spotted them from inside of the school and attempted to shoot at them through the window but his bullets failed to puncture the glass. At 12:04, he trekked to the school's main entrance where he encountered an unspecified number of police officers. Similarly to Kalmi, the officers tried to converse with Auvinen but were fired at a total of two times by the gunman. None one was injured during this encounter. Afterward, he walked into the lavatory next to the canteen and threw his jacket and bag on the floor and shot himself in the head, ending the shooting at 12:04 a.m.
