PERM, Sept 22 — Yuri Aydarov was about to start an algorithms class at his university in the central Russian city of Perm when he heard people running in the corridor. Aydarov, a lecturer at Perm State University, was one of the witnesses of a shooting spree in which an 18-year-old student killed six people and wounded nearly 30 on campus on Monday morning.
He saw the black-clad shooter — identified as Timur Bekmansurov — walk by his auditorium through a window, saying he was wearing a “sort of helmet.” All 17 students and staff members who locked themselves in Aydarov’s auditorium survived. After a day marred by chaos, staff and students at the university struggled to make sense of the violence.
Some recalled finding out there was an attacker in the building from social media, and not believing it before hearing shots. “We feel support from the whole of Russia and that really helps,” said politics lecturer Ksenia Punina. “When this happened in Kazan, I thought this could never happen here in Perm, it’s always calm here,” said medicine student Maria Denisova.
The head of the chemistry department, Irina Moshevskaya, said violence was a “systemic problem in our society”, blaming it on popular online culture.
