At least 10 killed, including the gunman, in Sweden’s deadliest mass shooting.
Around 10 people were killed on Tuesday in a shooting at an education centre in Sweden, including the suspected gunman, with the Swedish prime minister branding it the “worst mass shooting“ in the country’s history.
“Around 10 people have been killed today,“ Orebro police chief Roberto Eid Forest told reporters, adding that police could “not be more specific about the number due to the large number of wounded”.“This is the worst mass shooting in Swedish history,“ Prime Minister Ulf Kristersson told a press conference.Police did not disclose any information about the identity or ages of the dead, nor whether they were students or teachers at the school.
Two Campus Risbergska teachers, Miriam Jarlevall and Patrik Soderman, told newspaper Dagens Nyheter they heard gunfire in a hallway. It said the suspect was around 35 years old and had a license to carry a weapon and no criminal record, but did not provide any details about his identity.“I was standing there, watching what was happening, and I was just around here when I saw some bodies lying on the ground. I don't know if they were dead or injured,“ 16-year-old Linn, who goes to school near the site of the massacre, told an AFP correspondent at the scene.
Students in several nearby schools as well as the one in question had been locked in for several hours “for safety reasons” before gradually being released, police said.
