Four killed in Stockholm truck attack


Sweden is now one of the European countries plagued by those hit-and-run attacks since France, Germany, and recently Great Britain, as a truck rammed through a store in the capital city Stockholm, killing four people and injured others.

Authorities told that the driver apparently escaped the smoky and blood-streaked scene while being pursued. Later, they had apprehended a person of interest in the investigation, although they expressed doubt that he was the driver and said the search was continuing.

No one knows what motivated the attack but Prime Minister Stefan Lofven said the midafternoon rampage had been “an act of terrorism” and that the government would do “whatever it takes” for the public to feel safe.
