The shooting happened outside a bar in the downtown area of the Norwegian capital, police said.
A suspect was arrested and police don't believe any other people were involved, police spokesman Tore Barstad said.
He said the motive was not immediately known and that it wasn’t clear whether the shooting had any connection to the Pride parade that was to be held Saturday in Oslo.
