    Quote from Pericolos0

    My girlfriend was at a coffeeshop in Oslo when it happened, about 100m from the explosion . She's okay but it's fucking crazy, last thing you would expect to happen on a trip to Norway O__O.

    This is really crazy. First the bombing in Stockholm 100m away from the former Grin office (which thankfully didnt work out as planed by the terrorists) and now your girlfriend so close too. Guillaume and his girlfriend were only 25m meters away from the Stockholm explosion as far as i remember. Mapcore entourage is dodging bombs.

    The fact that the gunman was dressed as a cop and claimed to be there for security just makes it even more nuts.

    The shooter was disguised as a cop loaded with a handgun, shotgun, rifle and body armor. Shooting youths gathered on a political camp trapped on an island. He is said to be an ethnic white Norwegian as well.

    Heard reports that kids where swimming of the island in an attempt to get away. This is very sad.

    my girlfriend was just leaving work when the explosion hit, luckily she was inside when it happened. When she got out into the street people were running around in panic, people were crying and there was glass shards everywhere. She started running as well, but being pregnant and all (7 weeks to go), she didn't get to far before someone bumped into her and she lost her phone, because she was trying to phone her family at the time I guess.

    The phone, which of course I tried to phone up 5 minutes after that to hear if she was okay, and when she didn't answer, and the fact that her work place is in the same street (akersgata) as the early reports said that the bomb had gone off in then I was really fucking worried.

    After half an hour or so I got a phone call from her mother, telling me that my girlfriend was safe and unharmed, only very scared and didnt know what to do. She had borrowed a phone from some strangers in order to phone home. A bit later she messaged me on facebook telling me that some strangers had driven her to their home and that she is gonna spend the night there because she didn't dare get on any public transportation systems to go back home.

    It was horrible, one of the worst moments of my life. The not knowing was so fucking awful. Im so fucking grateful that she didn't get hurt, really puts things in perspective

    I'm glad your girlfriend and the baby are ok! It's also nice to read stories about strangers helping each other.

    This is apparently the guy who dressed up as a cop and shot 10 youths.

    Some decent information here:

    Good to hear Skjalg, can't begin to imagine how awful that must be, not knowing if she was safe. And yeah, seems that in these situations people usually come together and show their better sides.

    Death toll on the Island is now confirmed by police to be at least 80 people (possibly more). Gunman was acting alone. Holy. Shit.

    Thanks^^

    The massacre on Utøya is so terrible, when I went to bed last night the death toll was approximated to 10, and now its nearing 90..

    yes... what the fuck happened on that island?

    and man... can't imagine the hell of worry you went through Skjalg :/

    Luckily for me, all my norwegian relatives live in bergen, except one who lives in oslo but not anywhere near the bombing site...
