“Sweden has been attacked. Everything indicates this is a terror attack,” he said.
Spendrups, the company that owns the truck used in the attack, said the vehicle had been hijacked earlier in the day as the driver was making deliveries.
Radio Sweden has reported that parts of the city center have been cordoned off and all trains and metros passing in and out of the city have been canceled. The parliament building is also currently on lockdown.
The incident mimics the Bastille Day attacks in Nice, France, last summer and the Christmastime attacks in Berlin, Germany, in December. It also echoes last month's attack in London, when a lone wolf terrorist plowed through civilians on Westminster Bridge near the Houses of Parliment.
