Five people shot at school in Sweden
Five people have been shot at a school in Sweden, according to police.
A major police operation is currently under way in the town of Orebro, around 200km (125 miles) west of the capital Stockholm.
Swedish newspaper Aftonbladet reported one person trapped in the school saying "we have heard several shots outside".
The newspaper also quoted a person who had received a text from a teacher at the school saying "there was a shooting with automatic weapons".
It said local emergency and intensive care departments are being made ready for casualties.
Police urged the public to stay away.
"The reports of violence in Orebro are very serious. The police are on site and the operation is in full swing," Justice Minister Gunnar Strömmer told Swedish news agency TT. "The government is in close contact with the police, and is closely following developments."
The Associated Press said the school was an adult education centre.
