Police said the gunman had also been “eliminated” following the shooting at Charles University - the deadliest attack in modern Czech history.
Police received first reports of shooting at the university’s Faculty of Arts on Jan Palach Square in the centre of the capital after 15:00 local time (14:00 GMT).
“One hour later, another police squad broke in and then put us on the floor, briefly searched us then evacuated from the building,” the professor added.
“Currently stuck inside my classroom in Prague,” Jakob Weizman, a student at Charles University, wrote on X (formerly Twitter).
It read: “Stay put, don’t go anywhere, if you’re in the offices, lock them and place furniture in front of the door, turn off the lights.”
