Police have confirmed that 11 people have now died following a mass shooting at an adult education school in Sweden and the number of injured is currently unclear.

The king and queen visited the scene of the tragic event that occurred on Tuesday and Swedish flags were flown at half-mast to honor the victims.

Survivors of Sweden's worst mass shooting on Wednesday recalled trying to save the lives of their comrades at a school for adults in Örebro, a day after a gunman killed 11 people on what the prime minister called a "dark day" in the country's history.
