At least 10 people were killed in a mass shooting at an adult education center in Orebro, Sweden, on Tuesday. Authorities confirmed that the suspected shooter was among the dead but have not yet provided details about the individual’s identity or possible motive.

The incident occurred at the Risbergska educational center, which serves around 2,000 students, including adults studying for diplomas and vocational training. The shooting took place around 12:30 p.m. local time, prompting a large-scale emergency response. Police locked down the area and searched multiple locations before confirming the situation was under control.

Authorities believe the shooter acted alone and was not affiliated with any known criminal networks. While terrorism is not currently suspected, investigators have not ruled out any possibilities. The exact number of injured individuals remains unclear.

Sweden has strict gun laws, but in recent years, the country has seen an increase in violent crime, particularly linked to illegal firearms and organized crime. While school shootings are rare, this attack is considered one of the deadliest in Swedish history.

Government officials, including Prime Minister Ulf Kristersson, have expressed deep concern over the violence. Opposition leaders have also called for stronger measures to address rising crime.

Classes at the Risbergska center are expected to be suspended, and authorities are providing support to affected students and staff. The investigation remains ongoing as police work to determine the shooter’s motives and background.
