OSLO, Norway (AP) — Oslo police say they suspect the man arrested after a shooting at a youth camp is also linked to a bombing in Oslo.

Acting Police Chief Sveinung Sponheim won’t give any details about the man, who was dressed in a police uniform when he opened fire Friday.

He said police were still trying to get an overview of the shooting at the Utoya youth camp and could not say whether there was more than one shooter.

At least seven people were killed earlier in a bombing in Oslo.
