The suspected mass murderer Rickard Andersson was licensed for four weapons.
It is about two pump -repeating shotguns and two semi -automatic bullets, says a person with good insight into the investigation for TV4 News.
He was licensed for all weapons shortly after he took the hunter’s degree in 2011.
The perpetrator, who according to TV4 The news was 35-year-old Rickard Andersson, was found dead about an hour after the first alarm about the school massacre in Örebro.
There were three weapons, about ten sleeves and a large number of unused ammunition next to him, according to police.
Rickard Andersson is not known by the police before. However, he had a license for a total of four weapons, which have been seized by the police.
Two shotguns and two semi -automatic
A person with good insight into the investigation states for TV4 News that it is about two pump -repeating shotguns and two semi -automatic ball guns. He was licensed for all shortly after he took the hunter’s degree in 2011.
According to the data, the semi -automatic rifle was not of the mentioned type, which in 2023 was allowed to use in hunting in Sweden.
TV4 News has let the gun expert Lars-Yngve Ekström listen to audio recordings from the massacre. He hears two different calibert types, both hail and bullet.
Much indicates that the shooter was well prepared, says Lars-Yngve Ekström.
– The weapons I hear had no typical reloading sounds, but he had apparently had finished magazines and just switched between. It sounds so.
“The picture begins to clear”
The first police officers who arrived at the Risberg School in Örebro perceived that they were shot by the perpetrator. Police Area Manager Lars Wirén has described the crime scene as “an inferno”.
A total of eleven people were killed, including Rickard Andersson. The motive for the deed remains unclear.
“The picture starts clear, but we are not prepared to give any detail responses yet,” said preliminary investigator Kristoffer Zickbaue on Thursday.
