GENEVA (AA) - Swedish Prime Minister Ulf Kristersson said on Friday that several people were killed and injured following an incident at a bus stop in central Stockholm.
"I have received the tragic news that several people have died and been injured at a bus stop in central Stockholm. People who may have been on their way home to family, friends or a quiet evening at home," Kristersson said in a post on the US social media platform X.
"We still do not know the cause of this," he said, adding that his thoughts were "primarily with those affected and their loved ones."
Police, ambulance teams, and rescue services are carrying out "a very difficult and important job," Kristersson added, urging the public to show respect and understanding for their work.
