Eleven dead after gunman opens fire on Swedish campus
ai generated text
A mass shooting occurred in Sweden, resulting in 11 fatalities and several injuries. The perpetrator, a 35-year-old local resident, is believed to have acted alone with no links to gangs. The motive behind the attack is unclear, but it is not considered a terrorist act. The incident is deemed exceptional and disturbing by the Prime Minister, with some individuals expressing concern about a possible racial element to the shooting.
Such violence and terror have no place in our societies – least of all in schools. In this dark hour, we stand with the people of Sweden.
The government is in close contact with the police and is closely following developments.
We still don't know why this happened or what the motives could have been. We hope to have those answers.
Today, we have witnessed brutal, deadly violence against completely innocent people.
We want to be clear that based on investigative and intelligence information at present, there is no information pointing to the culprit acting on ideological motives.
But there will come a time when we will know what happened, how it could happen and what motives may have been behind it.
This is the worst mass shooting in Swedish history.
It is a very painful day for all of Sweden. My thoughts are also with all those whose normal school day was replaced with terror. Being confined to a classroom with fear for your own life is a nightmare that no one should have to experience.
The suspected assailant is not known to police.
Since we also do not have any information about the injury situation for those being treated in hospital, there is unfortunately a risk that the number will not stop at 11.
