List of rampage killers (other incidents)

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

This is an old revision of this page, as edited by Unknown4321unknown (talk | contribs) at 14:47, 8 July 2020 (Moved to List of rampage killers (other incidents in the United States)). The present address (URL) is a permanent link to this revision, which may differ significantly from the current revision.

This section of the list of rampage killers contains mass murders by single perpetrators that do not fit into the upper categories, like Arson fires, Poisonings, Bombings, deliberate airliner crashes and train derailments caused by sabotage. Cases with more than one offender are not included.

A rampage killer has been defined as follows:

A rampage involves the (attempted) killing of multiple persons least partly in public space by a single physically present perpetrator using (potentially) deadly weapons in a single event without any cooling-off period.[1]

This list should contain every case with at least one of the following features:

  • Rampage killings with 6 or more dead
  • Rampage killings with at least 4 people killed and least ten victims overall (dead plus injured)
  • Rampage killings with at least 2 people killed and least 12 victims overall (dead plus injured)
  • An incidence of rampage killing shall not be included in this list if it does not include at least two people killed.
  • In all cases the perpetrator is not counted among those killed or injured.
