A 15-year-old fatally stabbed the caretaker at his former school in Poland and wounded two other adults on Thursday, a <a href="https://www.mid-day.com/news/world-news/article/poland-school-stabbing-19-year-old-arrested-for-allegedly-attacking-students-teachers-seven-injured-23653849" target="_blank" rel="none noopener">day after a similar knife attack</a> wounded nine in a Polish high school, police said.
Police arrested the boy after the attack at the John-Paul II primary school in Leszczydol-Nowiny, a small town 70 kilometres (40 miles) northeast of Warsaw, a police spokesperson told AFP.
"The caretaker was the first person assaulted by the former student," said Katarzyna Kucharska, spokesperson for the police in the Warsaw region.
"Then a teacher and the head of the school managed to overpower him, even though he <a href="https://www.mid-day.com/news/world-news/article/slovakia-school-stabbing-teacher-killed-two-injured-in-elementary-school-attack-23652497" target="_blank" rel="none noopener">struck them with his weapon</a>."
The caretaker, 37, died of their wounds, regional police said on X.
Police said they had also detained a 17-year-old boy in another Polish town after he made it known that he intended to do "something spectacular" at his school.
Officers found a bag containing two knives in his apartment.
Thursday's attack came a day after a 19-year-old was arrested after nine people were wounded at a high school in Ostroleka, 120 kilometres north of Warsaw.
