Police shot the suspect in the leg and arrested him in connection with the attack. On its officialTwitter account,the Southwest Finland Police Service wrote:"Several persons stabbed in central Turku. Police has shot at suspected perpetrator. One person is apprehended." They did not give a specific number of injuries. The police tweeted that the public should move away from the city center. The Finnish Security Intelligence Service, or SUPO, could not be reached for comment. The motive of the attack remains unconfirmed, but itcomes a day after two vehicle-ramming attacks in Spain, one in the city center of Barcelona that left 13deadand another in a town south of the city that killed one person. In June, SUPOsaid it had obtained knowledge of extremism-related plans being made in the country. In response, it raised the threat from ‘low’ to ‘elevated.’ “The most significant terrorist threat in Finland is still posed by individual actors or small groups motivated by radical Islamist propaganda or terrorist organizations encouraging them,” SUPO said in a statement. It said the increased threat in the country was a result of dozens of foreign fighters traveling to join ISIS, some rising through its ranks and obtaining senior positions inthe radical Islamist group. According to Finnish intelligence, around 70 Finnish adults had traveled to join ISIS in Iraq and Syria by the end of 2015. This story is developing and will be updated as more information becomes available. --- R.I.P. GameFAQs Throwback Mode <cite>Scorsese2002 posted [p:885003563] in Suspected ...
