Man kills one, injures others in Finland

Finnish police say that a man with a knife has killed one person and injured at least three others at a shopping centre in central Finland.

Police tweeted that the attacker was detained during Tuesday's violence at the Hermanni shopping centre, which has been evacuated in the town of Kuopio.

Finnish newspaper Ilta-Sanomat said the shopping centre houses a vocational school which the attacker allegedly tried to enter, according to a witness.

Nine other people with minor injuries were brought to a hospital for evaluation.
