YouTube pulls Columbine videos

BBC's Six O'clock News has discovered that nine years on from America's worst high school shooting there is a thriving online community obsessed with teenage gunmen Harris and Klebold. The BBC reports.

Many tribute videos found on YouTube romanticise the killers who shot 12 pupils, a teacher and wounded 23 others before shooting themselves.

The BBC's investigation found it is not only American teenagers who are fascinated with the Columbine killers.

YouTube, which is owned by Google, said it was grateful to the BBC for bringing the videos to its attention.
