“Four people have reportedly been shot after a gunman went on the rampage in a shopping centre in Finland.”
SNIPPET: “News agencies say many ambulances have been called to the mall in the town of Espoo near the capital, Helsinki.
YLE, the Finnish English-language news service, is reporting that one or more people were shot at the centre’s Prisma grocery shop.
One employee was apparently seen lying on the floor in the upper level of the business.
A man dressed in black was seen walking toward Citymarket, another grocery store.”

Ok Viksitimali...here’s a live report.
Can you translate and is there a description on the suspect other than he’s wearing black?

“’Fatal’ shooting at shopping mall in Espoo, Finland”
SNIPPET: “A witness said an employee of the Prisma grocery store was left lying on the floor of the shop, and that a man dressed in black was seen walking toward the Citymarket store.
A separate, unconfirmed, report said one person had been shot twice in the head and another in the stomach.”
Ok, and according to the translation link it looks like an image was captured of the shooter.
Do you have a lot of gypsy minorities in Finland?
At the moment, at least 10,000 Roma reside in Finland. In addition, approximately 3,500 Finnish Roma live in Sweden.
