- The police are on site and talking to the staff.
It is on the advice of the police that the children remain as part of the police investigation, says Hans Ringström, head of school in Eskilstuna.
Are the children who have seen the shooting?
- I do not know, now the police work must continue, says Ringström.
Tallåsen's preschool and Fröslundaskolan's preschool were also affected by the accommodations.
Crisis support is offered
Hans Ringström says that staff, students and children will be offered crisis support in various ways.
- We have a responsibility to ensure that everyone gets the support they need.
How do you react to this event?
- Unfortunately, I have thought for a long time that things like this can happen near a school because shootings have increased and also moved more in public environments.
I think it is terrible that this has happened, says Hans Ringström.
