On the morning of 11 September 2026, shortly before lessons began at about 08:00, a pupil was stabbed at a secondary technical school in the Voltino neighbourhood of Zagreb. A pupil at the school wounded another pupil and a school cleaner with a knife; the attack took place in front of the toilets. The wounded boy was taken to the university hospital centre in Zagreb with severe, life-threatening injuries, including stab wounds to the chest and abdomen. He was operated on and moved to paediatric intensive care. The deputy director of the hospital said that evening that he was not yet conscious and could not communicate, that his condition was under control and there were so far no complications, and that doctors expected him to begin breathing on his own during the night. His mother was with him. The cleaner was also seriously injured. A senior official at the education ministry praised her, saying she had been at her post, had acted with great courage when the commotion broke out and had prevented the tragedy from being even greater. The official said the wounded pupil and the pupil suspected of the attack are both first-year pupils who had been at the school for five days and had attended the same primary school. He would not confirm whether a quarrel preceded the attack, saying the investigation was still under way and the facts would be known once the police reported. A crisis team remained at the school through the day and was to continue offering support to pupils and staff over the weekend and the following week. On 12 September Zagreb police said they had completed their investigation. They filed a criminal complaint against the suspect, a minor, for attempted aggravated murder of the wounded pupil and attempted murder of two school employees, both aged 59: the cleaner who was stabbed, and a second employee he tried to injure with a sharp object. He was also reported for violating the rights of nine children who were nearby during the attack. Staff overpowered him and held him until police arrived. An investigating judge ordered him held in pre-trial detention because of the risk of influencing witnesses and of reoffending.
