Apologies if this is out of place, but the Norwegian government HQ has had a bomb explosion near it.

I was walking up a hill when I heard the explosion, I though it was just a construction site planned explosion, but when I got home I was told that a bomb had gone off in Youngstorget, close to the government HQ in Norway.

It feels unreal that someone would try to bomb places here.

The BBC don't have much info yet, most info is going through the media here first.

I live by once of the main roads to Oslo, just saw ambulances and firetrucks rush by. Quite a few are injured. My mother was going to travel into town today but her ticket had run out. Pheww. Another ambulance passed by in the time I'm writing.


Edit: Jesus, now some lunatic has started shooting up the AUF's summercamp. AUF are the minors who support the political party (AP) who are in power.

Edit 2: He's arrested at last.

The odd thing is, it may seem close in US and UK standards, but I'm still like 5 kilometres away from Oslo, and once you get out of the centre, about 1 Km out the tall buildings all stop.

Heh around 20 dead by tommorow's death tolls I expect, this is a dark day for the nation. I hope that will be the maximum.

Why any one would attack Norway is beyond comprehension. Such a beautiful and peaceful country. 17 killed altogether. I feel sorry for Norway and Norwegian people.

He was most likely politically motivated according to the police.

This is pretty stupid... So no one knows why they're bombing?
The comment above is 100% legit, yo.

I'll give you a link to read on the news. The main thought is that he wished to kill the prime minister and then an ex-prime minister at Utøya, the summer camp based on an island.
