He also called on the public to share any footage that they may have taken about the shooting or the attacker with the police, but refrain from sharing it on social media.

Police said they first received reports of the shooting at the Fields shopping center, one of the largest malls in Scandinavia, at 5.37 p.m. local time (1537GMT) on Sunday. They quickly reached the site and arrested the suspect.​​​​​​​

British pop star Harry Styles was going to perform at a venue close to the Fields but his concert was canceled.

Styles on Twitter said that he is “heartbroken” and “devastated,” adding: “I’m sorry we couldn’t be together. Please look after each other.”
