News Desk
OSLO: A 42-year-old man has been arrested and charged with murder, attempted murder and terrorist acts after a shooting in the centre of Norway’s capital, Oslo.
Two people died and 21 were wounded early on Saturday in what police called an “act of Islamist terrorism”.
The shootings were in and near the London Pub, a popular LGBTQ+ venue, the Herr Nilsen jazz club and another pub.
Norway’s prime minister told the BBC the suspect was questioned in May, but was not deemed a threat at the time.
“We now need to see the result of an investigation,” PM Jonas Gahr Stoere told the BBC’s Newshour programme late on Saturday.
The shooting started at about 01:15 local time on Saturday (23:15 GMT Friday), officials said.
