A hijacked beer truck was crashed into a department store into a Stockholm department store on Friday, April 7, killing at least five people and injuring many others.
Swedish Prime Minister Stefan Lofven says the truck crash “is an act of terror” that has killed at least two people. He says one person has been arrested in the attack.
The Aftonbladet daily says Swedish beermaker Spendrups said its truck had been carjacked earlier Friday.
Photos showed the beer truck sticking out of the Ahlens department store.
Swedish police were urging people to avoid central Stockholm around the downtown Sergels Torg square, and Swedish news agency TT says subway traffic has been shut down in the area.
Swedish broadcaster SVT broadcast reports of gunshots before the arrest of the suspected driver, but could not say who was shooting.
