Survivors of Sweden's deadliest shooting on Wednesday recounted their efforts to save lives at an adult education school in Orebro, a day after a gunman claimed 11 lives, drawing condemnation from the prime minister, who described it as a "dark day" in the nation's history.
The police disclosed that there were no signs of ideological motives behind the attack by the suspect identified in the media as 35-year-old Rickard Andersson. The authorities found Andersson's body at the scene and are investigating the incident.
Police Chief Roberto Eid Forest stated, We will get back on what motives there are, during a press conference on Wednesday regarding the tragic event. The assailant, previously unknown to the police, is believed to have acted alone.
Several individuals were fatally wounded, with some still in critical condition following the attack at the adult education center in Orebro. One student vividly described the chaos and their attempts to aid the injured during the shooting.
With flags at half-mast and a visit from the royal family expressing their condolences, the community and the country mourn the loss. Prime Minister Ulf Kristersson emphasized unity and support for the victims' families in the face of this tragedy.
