Three people have been killed in a shooting in the Swedish city of Uppsala, police have confirmed.
The shooting took place at a hair salon close to Vaksala Square in the centre of the city, local media reported. The shooter, who fled on a scooter, is still on the run, according to the reports.
Officers have cordoned off a large area and a murder investigation is under way.
The incident happened on the eve of the Walpurgis spring festival, which brings large crowds onto the streets of Uppsala, a city located north of the capital Stockholm, and known for its university.
"Everything happened so fast. It just went bang, bang, bang," a witness told Swedish channel TV4.
Another man said he was cooking at home when he heard "two bangs that sounded a bit like fireworks" going off outside on the street.
He told Swedish television he was "very surprised and scared" and shortly after "swarms of police and ambulances" started blocking off the street and telling people to move back.
A major effort is under way to find the shooter, with a police helicopter joining in the search, police spokesman Magnus Jansson Klarin told TV4.

would you eat them in a chair? would you eat them with cut hair?
I’d say, yes, yes and yes.
It's pretty bad, sorta like drowning in your bathtub if you're a Navy Seal.
The identity of the victims and the shooter are still unclear.
Publish their photos, someone will recognize them .
I would wonder if they are undocumented , I doubt that as I would expect the Swedish nanny state would supply an ID, some cash , housing, etc.
Import the third world...
Climate change and racism made Muhammad do it.
Become the third world.
I’d say ROP, except for the escape. Usually Moslems love dying for their religion and 72 virgins.
Why not tighten the GANG laws.
Kind of reminds me of The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo
Deutsche Welle reported this:
“ There was no information to suggest the incident was a terrorist attack or a hate crime, local police said, adding a homicide investigation has been launched.
The victims are yet to be identified, according to police…”
We all here know what that pretty much means, although Sweden has had problems with gangs.
An XC90 Volvo no doubt.
“Photos of the scene showed police outside of a barber shop called “Shalom.”
“There was no immediate indication of motive, and the police statement did not provide details about a suspected perpetrator.”
How stupid do police think people are?
Who ever did it hates Jews!
Probably hates Christians too.
I thought the Swedes didn’t do this the way the Old West in America does.
Yes. The rogue SUV.
“Swedish man, Muhamed bin Kabul, known to police, was heard shouting Aloha snackbar while shooting. Police are baffled but assure there is absolutely nothing to do with islamic terrorism.”
Lol
A guy on a scooter with a rabbit named “Sfoot”.
