Sweden gunman’s motives unknown five days after 10 killed: police

STOCKHOLM: Swedish police said on Sunday they are struggling to establish the motive of a gunman who killed 10 people at an adult education centre in the country´s worst mass shooting.

Police confirmed the gunman was a former student at the Campus Risbergska in the central city of Orebro. A top officer also said that police action had prevented an even higher toll. Police have not identified the gunman, who also died at the centre. But media have named him as 35-year-old Rickard Andersson, who had reportedly been living as an unemployed recluse and had psychological problems. Orebro police commander Henrik Dahlstrom acknowledged that it was still not known what had sparked the killing spree on Tuesday.
