Eight cadets and staff members were killed in Pakistan during an an eight-hour standoff Monday with gunmen who stormed a police training center in Lahore, said Gen. Athar Abbas, a military spokesman.

Abbas had previously said 30 people were killed. He cited the error on wrong information by his sources at the scene.

At least 52 others were wounded in the attack, authorities said.

Of the 10 to 12 gunmen who stormed the academy in the Manawan area of the eastern Pakistani city, four were killed in confrontation with police, said Rehman Malik, the head of the country’s Interior Ministry.

Another three militants were arrested, Abbas said.

The fate of the remaining gunmen was not immediately known.

The militants had been holed up on the top floor of a three-story building, Malik said. Security forces gained control of the first two floors and eventually made their way to the top, finally taking control of it and arresting the gunmen Monday afternoon.
