All 11 people who died in a shooting at a school for adults in Sweden have been identified by police but they have not yet released the names.

It comes as local media named a second victim in the attack as a father of two, who was a baker.

Eleven people, including the 35-year-old suspect, were killed in the incident at the Campus Risbergska school in Orebro on Tuesday – described by Sweden’s prime minister Ulf Kristersson as the worst shooting in the country’s history.

Police previously said they believe the attacker may have attended the adult education centre, while local media named the suspected perpetrator as Rickard Andersson.

On Friday, Sweden’s police authority, Polisen, said it had identified the 10 victims – seven women and three men – as well as the suspect who later turned the gun on himself.

It said in a statement that all 11 people killed were from Orebro County. The authority added that “each death constitutes an individual investigation”.

The seven women killed were aged 32, 38, 46, 52, 54, 55 and 68, while the four men were aged 28, 31, 35 and 48.

Second victim named by local media

Meanwhile, local news broadcaster SVT named Bassam al Sheleh, a father of two, as one of the 10 victims.

It reported the 48-year-old worked as a baker and studied at Campus Risbergska to improve his Swedish.

Pierre Al Hajj, who also worked at the bakery, told SVT: “The customers miss him. They’ve been in and asked about him yesterday and today.

“They don’t want to eat anymore. They have completely lost their appetite.”

Salim Iskef, a newly engaged nursing assistant, was named by local media on Thursday as one of the victims.

Sky News’ Swedish partner TV4 reported that after being shot, Mr Iskef managed to call his fiancee one final time.

“He said he loved me so much”, his partner Kareen Elia told the broadcaster.

“I can’t describe the feelings. We were supposed to get married on July 25.”

She added that, after he called her while lying on the floor, she could not understand what she was seeing on FaceTime and was in shock.

It also comes as Sweden’s government announced plans to tighten gun control after the shooting, including changing the vetting process for people applying for gun licences and clamping down on some semi-automatic weapons.

Sweden’s justice minister said the AR-15 assault rifle – which has been used in mass shootings in the US – was the kind of gun the government wants to ban.

Gunnar Strommer said: “In light of the horrible shooting in Orebro earlier this week we believe that the right balance is to roll back the regulation and prohibit that kind of weapon.”
