(CNN)A bow-and-arrow attack that left five people dead in Norway is being treated by police as an act of terror after officers revealed the suspect had converted to Islam and that they had concerns about his radicalization.

The investigation, "will clarify in more detail what the incidents were motivated by," the Norwegian Police Security Service (PST) said Thursday in a statement. A 37-year-old Danish citizen who was living in Norway was arrested and charged over the attack in the town of Kongsberg, but police have yet to disclose what charges he is facing.

"The police have previously been in contact with the man, including as a result of previous concerns related to radicalization," police chief Ole Bredrup Sæverud said Thursday.

Espen Andersen Bråthen, 37, has been identified as the man who killed five people during a bow and arrow rampage in the Norwegian town of Kongsberg last night

Foreign pin head hadn't had a job for nearly 20 years and was sponging off the Norwegian taxpayers. Too much time on his hands wasted on video games and porn and then feeling smug and superior after "converting" to the Bush's "religion of peace". Bring back the death penalty in Norway!

after officers revealed the suspect had converted to Islam

Convert to Buddhism: become a monk and go to a monastary to meditate

Convert to Hinduism: pray to Hindu Gods and become a vegan

Convert to Christianity: open a soup kitchen for the poor, and preach the gospel

Convert to Islam: organize a terrorist incident.

"Records suggest the man has been out of work since the early 2000s."

In the old days, this guy would have starved.

Now, in between donuts and beer on his fellow working citizens, he's got money to buy archery equipment, and time to practice with it.

This just adds to Norway dismal Serial Murder ratio.
Norway is the country on most serial murders per capita in the world.
Something in the air there?

The reason for that is that converts tend to follow the core principles of the religion very strictly.

That is why the Islamic reformation was a reduction to Wahabbism, to jihadis and sex slaves. That is what the Hadiths say is the core of Islam

None of the news reports I read late last night mentioned the killer was a Muslim. That was certainly hidden.

Now that it has been revealed, the story is dead.

UPOS senators from the California mothership:

You might be able to count at least one of Oregon's senators, and both of Colorado's senators in there, too. :)

It is my guess that many now immigrated muslims see that sick relationship too; that of extreme violence serving as a form of ‘worship’ to allah. These same muslims who do not agree with violent jihad on innocents are too afraid to object or change their faith.

I believe they can still be killed for the crime of changing religions. It’s like being a part of a very large gang, one that offers you a Sharia way of life, an offer you cannot refuse. Some brave souls do make it out.
They usually remain low key about their preference, with people like Pam Geller being the very rare exceptions.
