The suspect, who’s believed to have driven the truck, is a 39-year-old man originally from Uzbekistan, the police said at a press conference Saturday in Stockholm. It’s not clear whether the suspect worked as part of a broader network, National Police Commissioner Dan Eliasson said at the press conference. The man, who was caught on security cameras fleeing the scene, was arrested late Friday in a shop in Marsta, a suburb north of Stockholm. But the prosecutors said that it was clear from the “modus operandi” that this was terrorist crime. “There are circumstances that may indicate that there’s an explicit purpose to harm the population and incite fear,” Hans Ihrman, the prosecutor, said at the press conference.
