Norway massacre suspect: right-wing extremist
At least 85 people have been confirmed dead after a shooting at Norway's Utoya island, nearly two hours after a bomb blast killed seven people in a government district in the capital, Oslo. A gunman dressed in police uniform opened fire at a youth summer camp in Utoya on Friday. Oslo police are questioning, Anders Behring Breivik, a 32-year-old Norwegian who was arrested in connection with the shooting incident. Police say the suspect had been seen in Oslo before the bombing, which targeted buildings that house the prime minister's office. A police official said that information gleaned on the internet suggested the suspect was a "Christian fundamentalist". The TV2 television station reported, without disclosing its sources, that the detained man had links to right-wing extremism.
