List of rampage killers
List of rampage murderers
For other mass killings done by more than one individual, see
Mass murder .
This is a list of mass or spree killers. A mass murderer is typically defined as someone who kills 2 or more people in one incident, with no "cooling off" period, not including themself.[ 1] [ 2] A mass murder typically occurs in a single location where one or more persons kill several others.[ 3] [ 4] [ 5]
Specific notable subtypes of mass murder, including politically motivated crimes, workplace killings, school attacks and familicides, have their own lists.
This list does not include serial killers , members of democidal governments, or major political figures who orchestrated such actions.
