Truck Ploughs on Crowd in Stockholm,3 Dead; Shots Also Fired in Terrorist Attack in Sweden

A truck drove into a crowd today (April 7, 2017) on a shopping street and crashed into a department store in Stockholm, Sweden, killing at least three people and wounding eight in what the country's prime minister said appeared to be a terrorist attack, according to the ABC website.


Part of central Stockholm was cordoned off and the area was evacuated, including the main train station.


Swedish Prime Minister Stefan Lofven said all indications were that was an "act of terrorism."


Swedish broadcaster SVT said shots were fired during the attack and people in the area were seen fleeing the scene.
