SANTIAGO, Chile (AP) — A stabbing at a school in northern Chile killed at least one person and injured four others on Friday, police said. The attack occurred at about 10:40 a.m. local time at the Instituto Obispo Silva Lezaeta, located in the city of Calama, in the northern Antofagasta region. A 12th grade student attacked three students and two members of school staff, Chile’s national police force, the Carabineros, said in a statement. Police also said that “upon the arrival of officers, the individual was subdued and detained.” The school was evacuated and classes were canceled. The attack resulted in the death of a 59-year-old school supervisor. No information on the conditions of the four injured was immediately available. The attacker’s identity and age wasn’t immediately released, but Antofagasta governor Ricardo Díaz said that the assailant was a student. Díaz also said the student was carrying accelerant liquids, leading investigators to work on the hypothesis that the attack was premeditated.
