The Hague, September 28

Three people were killed by a lone gunman who opened fire in a hospital and an apartment in the Dutch city of Rotterdam on Thursday.

The shooter, a 32-year-old student from Rotterdam, wore a bulletproof vest as he opened fire, killing a 39-year-old woman and her 14-year-old daughter, Police Chief Fred Westerbeke said.

The shooter then went to the nearby Erasmus Medical Center where he killed a 46-year-old teacher. No motive was announced. — AP

The Tribune, now published from Chandigarh, started publication on February 2, 1881, in Lahore (now in Pakistan). It was started by Sardar Dyal Singh Majithia, a public-spirited philanthropist, and is run by a trust comprising five eminent persons as trustees.

The Tribune, the largest selling English daily in North India, publishes news and views without any bias or prejudice of any kind. Restraint and moderation, rather than agitational language and partisanship, are the hallmarks of the newspaper. It is an independent newspaper in the real sense of the term.

The Tribune has two sister publications, Punjabi Tribune (in Punjabi) and Dainik Tribune (in Hindi).
