NORWEGIAN cops are investigating a bow and arrow attack last night that killed five and injured two people as terror related. Cops last night charged a Danish man, 37, after he allegedly launched a half-an-hour long rampage in the town of Kongsberg, south-west of the capital Oslo, from inside a supermarket.

A large area of the small town, some 50 miles from Oslo, was evacuated and cordoned off after the suspect opened fire. Among those injured in the horror attack was an off-duty police officer, who was inside a Coop Extra supermarket during the rampage.

Police and multiple helicopters are here.” Acting Prime Minister Erna Solberg reassured the nation “the police are now in control” in a press conference on the “gruesome” attack. In response to the incident, cops across Norway – usually unarmed – were immediately ordered to carry guns. Authorities are looking into whether the attack was an act of terrorism. Police believe the suspect acted alone, with police chief Øyvind Aas telling reporters: “The man has been apprehended. “From the information we now have, this person carried out these actions alone. Several people have been injured and several are dead. “One person has performed these actions alone. “It is natural to consider whether it is an act of terrorism. But the man has not been questioned and it is too early to come to any conclusion.” The police chief added there were “several crime scenes” in the rampage, which took place just before 6.30pm local time. ‘GRUESOME’ Mayor Kari Anne Sand said a crisis centre had been established in the town adding: “It is a tragedy for all those affected. I am speechless.” The attack happened on the eve of a new government taking power. Ms Solberg said the mass murder would not affect the handover and the new prime minister would be sworn in as planned. Discarded arrows were spotted in the town last night as bomb squads, police dogs and soldiers remained on site. The investigation continues. Last night’s shooting was the deadliest attack in Norway in a decade after far-right extremist Anders Behring Breivik killed 77 people in 2011.   TwitterMultiple people have been killed after a man opened fire with a bow and arrow[/caption] APPart of the town was evacuated and cordoned off[/caption] TwitterAn investigation is underway[/caption] Several others were also injured in the horror attack We pay for your stories!
