[dutchman]

At least 80 people died when a gunman opened fire at an island youth camp in Norway, hours after a bomb attack on the capital, Oslo, police say.


An person injured by a gunman at the youth camp on the island of Utoya is taken from a helicopter into the Ullevaal Hospital in Oslo.

Police in Norway are questioning a 32- year-old Norwegian man in connection with both attacks.

The man was arrested on the tiny Utoeya island where police say he opened fire on teenagers.

The attacks are the worst Norway has seen since World War II.

At least seven people died in the earlier bombing, which seriously damaged a number of government buildings in the heart of Oslo.

Prime Minister Jens Stoltenberg, whose Oslo offices were among those badly hit by the blast, described the attacks as "bloody and cowardly".
