Truck Driver Ploughs Through Pedestrians in Sweden | 4 Dead & Dozens Injured
Four persons were reported dead in Stockholm Sweden after a man ploughed through one of the streets in the city.
The suspect allegedly hijacked a beer truck as it made a delivery nearby before ploughing through people on the street and crashed into a department store.
According to an eyewitness Glen Foran, an Australian tourist, “I turned around and saw a big truck coming towards me. It swerved from side to side. It didn’t look out of control, it was trying to hit people. It hit people, it was terrible. It hit a pram with a kid in it, demolished it. It took a long time for police to get here. I suppose from their view it was quick, but it felt like forever.”
‘Sweden has been attacked. Everything points to the fact that this is a terrorist attack,’ Prime Minister Stefan Lofven told reporters.
Police say one arrest has been made in connection to the attack, adding that there may be other attackers. Authorities also say they are not ruling out the possibility of it being a terrorist attack.
