Two students opened fire Monday inside a school in the central Philippines, a rare campus shooting that killed three teens and wounded seven others, police said.
The two alleged shooters, aged 15 and 14, were in custody after firing "randomly" in San Jose National High School, police Lieutenant Evalyn Diaz told AFP of the violence that sent terrified students running for cover.
A Glock 9mm pistol used in the shooting was registered to a policewoman in the region, national police spokesman Allen Rae Co told a media briefing, adding that she was taken into custody.
Over 40 empty shells were found at the scene, police added.
Irvin Nogar, a 52-year-old social studies teacher, told AFP he was in the middle of a class at the school in Leyte province's Tacloban City when he heard several "loud gun shots".
"I saw a shooter walking towards our area, so I told the students to be calm and hide under their desks, and I locked the door... They were crying and in panic."
Jennelyn Badoria, mother of a slain 15-year-old student, told AFP she believed whoever had given the shooters access to guns must be held accountable.
"I'm asking that the gun owners be charged, because the guns wouldn't have ended up in the children's hands if it weren't for them," she said in an interview outside the school.
Co, the police spokesman, also revealed the other weapon used in the shooting, a .38 calibre pistol, was registered to a security agency in Cebu City.
