M – Melee weapons, like knives, swords, spears, machetes, axes, clubs, rods, rocks, or bare hands.

O – Any other weapons, such as bombs, hand grenades, Molotov cocktails, poison and poisonous gas, as well as vehicle and arson attacks.

A – indicates that fire was the only other weapon used

V – indicates that a vehicle was the only other weapon used

E – indicates that explosives of any sort were the only other weapon used

Notes

1. At least one of the victims was a relative of the assailant.

Rampage killers

This is a list of mass/spree killers who attacked schools. A mass murderer is typically defined as someone who kills three or more people in one incident, with no "cooling off" period. ^{[89] [90]} A mass murder typically occurs in a single location where one or more persons kill several others. ^{[91] [92] [93]}

The victims must be largely the relatives of the perpetrator to be considered a familicide.

This list does not include serial killers, members of democidal governments, or major political figures who orchestrated such actions.
