Witnesses described how the shooter from Copenhagen killed: He pretended that the gun was only a dummy and tried to attract people to him | TVNOVINY.sk – TVNOVINY.sk

Denmark is recovering from a big shock. A 22-year-old man who suffers from mental problems is solely responsible for the attack in a Copenhagen shopping center in which three people died. Police say they knew him, but only marginally. According to some unverified sources on social networks, he was taking the antipsychotic quetiapine, intended for the treatment of symptoms of schizophrenia, bipolar affective disorder and anxiety. Since Denmark has very strict gun possession laws, residents of the country are wondering how such a person could have gotten hold of a rifle. ​Police Chief Søren Thomassen said it was premature to speculate on a motive, but there was no indication that it was a terrorist attack or a racially motivated act. However, this may change during the investigation. The man has already been charged with murder and should appear before a judge on Monday. Three people died and four others were seriously injured in the shooting that took place early Sunday evening. Police later clarified that the victims include two 17-year-old Danes, a boy and a girl, and a 47-year-old Russian citizen. Two Danish women aged 19 and 40 suffered gunshot wounds, as well as two Swedish citizens: a 50-year-old man and a 16-year-old woman. According to doctors, they are all in a critical but stable condition. The attacker did not run away, he tried to attract people to him. Thomassen emphasized that the investigation showed that the attacker acted alone without accomplices. His name has not been released, but it is speculated that he could be Noah Esbensen, who has posted several videos on YouTube of himself holding the SIG Sauer 200 STR, which is used by sports shooters in Scandinavia. On the recordings, the perpetrator can be seen posing with weapons and making suicidal gestures, talking about the ineffectiveness of psychiatric treatment. YouTube and Instagram accounts believed to belong to the suspect were blocked on Monday night.

The Royal Arena, a large multi-purpose hall, is also located near the Field’s shopping centre. A sold-out concert by the British singer Harry Styles was supposed to take place there on Sunday, but according to the media, it was cancelled. Several thousand fans were already in the hall, but they were later informed that the concert would not take place for security reasons. #BREAKING #DENMARK ?DENMARK : MASS SHOOTING AT A SHOPPING MALL IN COPENHAGEN! #VIDEO SUSPECT WITH HIS RIFLE INSIDE THE MALL & SHOOTINGSeveral people have been shot at Fields Shopping Mall in #Copenhagen.

They told me they heard gunfire. They were in the restaurant when it happened,” Hans Christian Scholz (53), who came to pick up his children, told the AP agency. “At first we thought people were running to see Harry Styles, then we realized he was seriously. We were running for our lives,” said Cassandra, one of the daughters. Several witnesses to the shooting said that the attacker was trying to attract people to him. He pretended that the gun was only a dummy. “The fight was psychopathic enough to pick up a rifle and go hunt people, but he didn’t run away,” an unnamed witness told Danish public broadcaster DR.
