Groups of panicked shoppers were seen escaping from the mall on local media footage. At 5:48 p.m. local time (15:48 GMT), the suspect was captured with a rifle and ammunition. Early Sunday evening, police conducted a thorough search of the local Zealand area in an effort to find any collaborators. Thomassen declared, “We are going to have a big inquiry and a big operational presence in Copenhagen until we can say with certainty: He was alone.
According to Thomassen, the shooter also killed a man in his forties and two “young persons,” a male and a woman. Three of the other injured people were in critical condition.
According to the investigation so far, there is no evidence of a racial or another ulterior purpose, but this could change, he added.
