Norway gun suspect 'acted alone'

The suspect charged with carrying out a massacre at a youth camp in Norway and a bombing in the capital, Oslo, says he acted alone, police say. Pandora Charms Bracelets Anders Behring Breivik, 32, admitted to carrying out both attacks, which he described as "gruesome but necessary".

Norway's King Harald V and his wife Queen Sonja attended the service, along with Prime Minister Jens Stoltenberg, laying single white flowers outside as they entered. The pews in the church were full, with the congregation spilling into the square outside, which was covered in candles and flowers. Mr Stoltenberg told the mourners that the two days since the attacks took place felt like "an eternity - hours, days, and nights filled with shock and angst and crying". cheap tiffany As many of those in the cathedral wept, he said: "Each and every one of those who've left us is a tragedy - together, it's a national tragedy." Throughout the day people continued to pour into the square outside the cathedral, laying flowers and candles at a memorial for the victims. Meanwhile more details have emerged about why the police operation to capture the gunman took so long.

And asked why a helicopter was not used, police chief Sveinung Sponheim said this would have taken longer as the nearest police helicopter was at a base in the south. 'Good dialogue' On Sunday, police briefly detained and later released several people without charge in a raid in Oslo. Mr Sponheim told reporters the suspect had property in the area of the raid and police were looking for traces of explosives, though nothing of value was found. In an earlier news conference, he said Mr Breivik "admitted to the facts of both the bombing and the shooting, although he's not admitting criminal guilt". tiffany jewelry outlet "He says that he was alone but the police must verify everything that he said. Some of the witness statements from the island have made us unsure of whether there was one or more shooters." Mr Sponheim said police were not looking for anyone else at the moment - though they had not ruled out that the suspect might have had help. He said Mr Breivik, who has been charged over both attacks and is due to appear in court on Monday, had co-operated during his interrogation.

Soon afterwards, 85 people were shot dead as a gunman, dressed as a policeman, ran amok on the nearby island of Utoeya. An 86th person died in hospital on Sunday. The gunman was arrested when police arrived an estimated 90 minutes after the massacre began. Mr Breivik's lawyer said his client surrendered after running out of ammunition, but police later said he still had a lot with him.

In the document posted online, references were made to targeting "cultural Marxists/ multiculturalist traitors". Norway has had problems with neo-Nazi groups in the past but the assumption was that such groups had been largely eliminated and did not pose a significant threat, correspondents say.
