Witnesses who survived Sweden’s worst mass shooting have described horror and panic that gripped an adult education center west of Stockholm as the gunman killed at least 10 people.

A gunman opened fire at an adult education center in the Swedish city of Örebro on Tuesday, killing at least 10 people in what the country’s prime minister called the “worst mass shooting in Swedish history.

Officials in Sweden have vowed to determine why a man killed 10 people, and apparently himself, in an unprecedented attack that's shaken their "society to its core."
