Swedish Prime Minister is saying one person has been arrested.
weird thing about the truck
it belongs to the beer company Spendrups and was delivering beer to a restaurant down the street and according to Spendrups the driver was unloading when someone just jumped into the cab and drove it off into the crowd
sounds like a proper impulsive psychotic event
yep
I guess. Unless that truck does that same delivery every day or few days and the driver always leaves it unlocked with the keys in?
well, in that area anyone could have their pick of about 20 vehicles at any given time tbh
thereâs also mobile footage of the arrest online
Yeah fair enough. I guess it could be planned on that basis, then?
Reading reports that the truck was hijacked earlier in the day so the driver could have been at large for awhileâŠ
Driverâs probably going to feel horrible about it
Yeah, I suppose
well anyway, seems like they arrested the guy, though could be anyone guess - or at least the culprit wasnât shot dead at the scene
maybe weâll get some answers
on the other hand there are rumours of gunshots & explosions elsewhere in the city âŠbut you always get these rumours when people are spooked
I think they said it had been hijacked earlier in the day?
yeah, my mistake - I was listening to an earlier report that was a little confused
Lots of confusing stuff at the moment. Keep hearing new âreportsâ of new shootings, lots of confusion and panic around.
yep
reports of an explosion in T-Centralen
Police evacuating & sealing of the whole station
where bounce you hun?
Are those new reports? Iâm in Ăstermalm atm, so this is all happening like 10/15 mins away. There have been quite a few helicopters around. HBU?
yeah, about 10 minutes ago, details are a bit sketchy about the âexplosionâ but anyway Centralen is being evacuated & shut down
you at work?
I see the helicopters. Iâm at home though. A little out of town up on the hill
Yeh, Iâm at work. Centralen is pretty close and I havenât heard anything so fingers crossed. Not surprised itâs being shut down though.
seems like theyâre still looking for someone/have extra info
⹠Polisen uppmanar folk att inte röra sig mot Gamla stan, och att stanna inne om man befinner sig pÄ Södermalm
⹠All tÄgtrafik till och frÄn Stockholm avstÀngd och Stockholms centralstation ska utrymmas.
Police advising nobody goes toward the old town & and that everyone on Södermalm should stay indoors
All train traffic to & from Stockholm is on lock down & Central station is being evacuated
Polisen kör just nu runt i Stockholm och ropar ut frÄn bilarna att mÀnniskor ska lÀmna omrÄdet.
Ingen Àr i nulÀget gripen i Àrendet, uppger polisen vid 16.40-tiden.
Police are driving round shouting from their police cars to leave the area
No one is currently under arrest regarding this case
hmm. So the perp is still at large and suspected to be in the Gamla Stan/Söder area
Press conference from Security Police in 20 minutes
so, situation ongoing
thanks for the info
