The Czech Republic is honoring the victims of last week's deadly shooting attack in a small town restaurant.
On Feb 24, a gunman entered the Druzba, or "Friendship," restaurant in the southeastern town of Uhersky Brod and opened fire during lunchtime, killing eight and seriously wounding a woman before he fatally shot himself.
Police identified the gunman as a 63-year-old local man who had no criminal record and had a gun license. A motive hasn't yet been determined, but authorities ruled out terrorism.
