A tragic shooting at a campus in Örebro, Sweden, has left 10 people dead, including the shooter, who was later found deceased.
According to Swedish police, the attack took place at Risbärsgska campus, which serves students over the age of 20. A young man opened fire on Tuesday before turning the gun on himself in an apparent suicide, as reported by Swedish news agency TT.
Authorities fear the death toll may rise, as several others were critically injured.
Teacher Linn Warenmark stated that there were fewer students on campus at the time of the shooting, as many had already left after their exams. She recalled hearing around 10 gunshots.
Footage from the scene shows police quickly responding to the incident, evacuating students and nearby residents.
Swedish Prime Minister Ulf Kristersson described the shooting as one of the worst tragedies in Sweden’s history and assured that a thorough investigation is underway.
According to the BBC, the attack took place approximately 124 kilometers west of the capital, Stockholm.
