LOS ANGELES, CA (California Network) - At least five are dead and several others injured following a terror attack in Stockholm, Sweden. Early reports say three armed men hijacked a truck and drove it into a crowded market. The reports of multiple men are unconfirmed.
The truck was eventually crashed into a department store.
A photo from the event shows at least one man being arrested at the scene.
At least five people have been reported killed.
Sweden has invited criticism for offering its nation as a haven for Muslim refugees from Syria and elsewhere. It is unknown if the terrorist is Muslim, or what his motivation was.
Should the terrorist be a Muslim refugee, it would call into question the nation's welcoming policy. More often however, such terror attacks are carried out by people native born in the countries they betray.
Police were seen arresting a suspect near the site of the attack. It is unknown if this person is the terrorist.
