Five people were shot at an adult education center in Sweden on Tuesday, police said. Authorities said that the danger wasn't over and urged the public to stay away from the school.
The extent of the victims' injuries wasn't immediately clear. The adult education center is about 200 kilometers (125 miles) west of Stockholm.
Students are being sheltered in nearby buildings. Other parts of the school were evacuated following the violence.
“The reports of violence in Orebro are very serious. The police are on site and the operation is in full swing. The government is in close contact with the police, and is closely following developments,” Justice Minister Gunnar Strömmer told Swedish news agency TT.
