A sixth person has been found dead following the shootings in a town near Helsinki, Finland, police said Thursday. They said it is believed the sixth victim is the shooter, who police had previously identified as 43-year-old Ibrahim Shkupolli. Shkupolli, who police said had lived in Finland "for some time," is believed to have killed at least four people at a shopping center near the Finnish capital Helsinki.
Finnish police confirmed the shooting happened at 10:08 a.m. (3:08 a.m. ET), leaving three men and one woman dead.
CNN affiliate MTV3 and state broadcaster YLE reported that five people were killed. YLE said the fifth victim was found at an apartment in Espoo; MTV3 said that victim was a woman.
Shkupolli has lived in Finland "for some time," police said. The shooting happened at the Sello shopping center in the town of Espoo, just to the west of Helsinki, witnesses said....

A crazed muslim gunman killing innocent people! Who’d thunk it?
You can run,but you can’t hide!
That’s what I’ve been hearing, as well: The shooter was an Albanian muzz.
Even FOX didn’t so much as hint at it. They did report, however, that there are now increased calls for gun control in Findland. Surprise surprise surprise.
I didn't know there were Amish in Finland.
I think it is “Ibrahim” as in Ibrahim Hooper.
>> Ibrahim?
I didn’t know there were Amish in Finland. <<
Hitch up thou horses to yon buggy Jeremiah, get the pitchforks and whips Ezekiel, it is time to go Jihad-ing....
Pig faced Muslim trash.
Based on what I’ve been reading in the Norwegian press, this could be rooted in the demented phenomenon of the ‘honour killing’.
He shot his ex-wife, possibly because she had had the audacity to get a job. (Speculation on my part).
His other four victims were colleagues of his ex-wife, who worked in the same shop in the mall where he murdered them.
News breaks of any fatal shooting with multiple victims or any sort of bombing anywhere in a Western Country and despite the news attempts of trying to conceal what TYPE of nutbar did it, I know almost immediately and the words “Radical Islamic Extremest” pop into my mind so quickly it is almost like reflex.
Sad thing is if I was as right about picking lotto numbers as I am about discerning the Religion of the shooters/bombers, I would be giving Bill Gates a run for his money...
> You read Norwegian? Are you a Varg Veum fan?
Well, it was like the Christmas underwear bomber. When I first heard what had happened, I knew (not assumed, not guessed, but knew) the religious affiliation of the bomber.
Thank you for posting his country of origin. I figured he was Muslim by the name, but there sure was a lot NOT mentioned in this article.
If Albania is an EU member (I think it is but am uncertain) and if this filthbag had an Albanian passport then he was very probably there legally because of the EU's residency laws (Finland is an EU member).
I haven’t read Staalesen.
I have read Jo Nesbø.
If you can get past the Political Correctness his novels are quite entertaining.
“They did report, however, that there are now increased calls for gun control in Findland.”
...as if Albanians will EVER have trouble finding firearms in Europe.
How about increased Albanian Muslim control?
The shooter is counted among the victims?
Oh, I get it now; it wasn’t all his fault.
In CNN’s politically correct logic, the shooter isn’t the perpetrator; the gun is. The shooter was seduced by his 9mm pistol into shooting those 5 people. Hence, the shooter is the sixth victim.
With cracked logic like that, no wonder the MSM is going under. The sooner the better.
