How Sweden’s worst mass shooting unfolded at a small town school - and why police have ‘no clear motive’ one week on - IN FOCUS: As Sweden falls silent for the victims of the Orebro killings their families are still waiting for answers,

Officials in Sweden have vowed to determine why a man killed 10 people, and apparently himself, in an unprecedented attack that's shaken their "society to its core."

A gunman who killed 11 people, including himself, at an adult education centre in central Sweden may have been a student at the school, police said on Thursday, as they described chaotic scenes after the country's deadliest mass shooting as being like an "inferno".

Sweden’s right-wing government said on Friday it would seek to tighten gun laws in the wake of the country’s deadliest mass shooting at an adult education center where the attacker appeared to have used several of his own licensed rifles.

A minute's silence was observed across Sweden on Tuesday to honour the victims of a deadly shooting at an adult education centre in the city of Örebro. The minute's silence was held in Örebro and several other Swedish cities at 12 pm (1100 GMT).
