Then the glass of the bar next door was shattered and I understood I had to run for cover.” He picked up a weapon and started shooting,” Roenneberg told NRK.
“I saw a man arrive at the site with a bag. Olav Roenneberg, a journalist from Norwegian public broadcaster NRK, said he witnessed the shooting. He said 14 people were receiving medical treatment, eight of whom have been hospitalized. There will be a continuous assessment of what measures police should take to protect that event and whether this incident has a connection to Pride at all,' Barstad told reporters. “Police are in contact with the organisers of the Pride event this Saturday.
Barstad said the motive was not immediately known and it wasn't clear whether the shooting had any connection to the Pride parade that was to be held Saturday in Oslo.
