The suspect, a school employee, opened fire with an automatic rifle and tried to kill himself, police say.
At least three staff members have been killed in a shooting at a school in the northwest of Bosnia and Herzegovina, authorities say.
Among those killed in Wednesday’s shooting were the principal, secretary and a teacher at the Sanski Most High School Center, Adnan Beganovic, a spokesman for the Ministry of Internal Affairs, told Al Jazeera.
The shooting took place at 10:15am (08:15 GMT). The Reuters news agency reported quoting police that a school employee was involved in the shooting.
The Sanski Most town is located approximately 200km (124 miles) northwest of the capital, Sarajevo.
Schools in Bosnia are closed for the summer holiday, which means no classes were being held at the time of the shooting. While no students were present, teachers were meeting to prepare for the upcoming school year.
