Thor Langli: Norwegian Capital

Labor Party Dept: Mr. Langli recalled standing next to the head of an anti-terror squad in Oslo when he received a call about the second attack at the Labor Party's youth camp on Utoya, some 40 kilometres from the Norwegian capital, according to Globe and Mail. Another report came in that about 50 people had been shot on the island. The anti-terror unit was dispatched to Utoya. When it arrived, some 70 minutes after the first reports of Mr. Breivik's rampage, 100 people had been shot and testifying in Mr. Breivik's trial, police operations leader Thor Langli said the initial reports he received after the blast suggested there were two suspects, and two other bombs about to explode. I saw on his face that it was something serious, Mr. Langli said. And while I was watching him he said out of the corner of his mouth: Shooting on Utoya. (www.immigrantscanada.com).
