Current Events > Swedish uni evacuated after perceived threat

(+) Yeah! (+)

https://www.dn.se/nyheter/sverige/linkopings-universitet-utrymt-hotfulla-affischer/

Some dude was putting up posters linking to his Instagram where he was waving around weapons and cryptically talking about NPCs, how you choose which script you want to follow, etc. Authorities took it seriously enough that they evacuated the campus. Now he deleted the worst of his videos and seems seriously freaked out, posting videos like "you've got NOTHING on me, I didn't threaten ANYONE, it was just art to show how you're all part of herd mentality".
Let's see what happens

It's my university, but not my Campus, not that I study atm anyway.

It's funny that they have Campus Norrkping on the pic tho.

Do only Europeans refer to university as uni? Don't think I've heard any Americans do that

Americans tend to just use 'U'.

A lot of Europeans learn to speak English Americanly, myself included. My accent would be closer to American than British.

is this the recent bomb threath i heard about on the radion today, (something about an "unknown object") or is that a separate thing in the same city?

Well what I mean is Europeans say stuff like "I'm in uni" whereas I think Americans would say "I'm in college" usually

Anyway they arrested a guy

---

cryptically talking about NPCs

Another right-wing incel eh
---

Lock em up
---

btw, that "suspect object" i mentioned in post #6.
they sent in a robot, and deemed it harmless. probably no connection to this
---

Not sure he's an American. His English is very good, but my self-important pompous know-it-all ass seemed to hear slight Swedish traces in his accent. Might just be imagination though.

I think I heard a slip up too honestly. I wasn't sure at first.

How much is this dude going to get wrecked?

Yeah thatll about do it.

The guy has been released but is still under investigation for "grossly illegal threaths" and "illegal poster-hanging".
(I'm not sure on the translation)

They found a softairgun in his home.

He claims that it was only an attempt at viral marketing, and there is no evidence pointing to the contrary, but the criminal charges still stand.

Still, doing that stunt right after 2 large bomb explosions in relative quick succesion is pretty fucking stupid.
---

Wait, bomb explosions? When did this happen?

Genuinely asking, I spent most of this past weekend drinking with friends. Might be a bit out of the loop.
---

I actually thought this was going to be a joke when I opened the topic.

I was going to say oh no, did the university run out of swedish fish gummies.
But the hell with it. It's late and I'm tired and I'm posting it anyway.
---

Apparently he made some insta post three weeks before the explosion alluding to an explosive reveal. Very unfortunate

I was talking about the one in...June, i think and the one last week in the police building.
They were unrelated to this guy.

I was just pointing out that it's really stupid to do this shit after all of that, even if he didn't intend it as a real threath

Any updates?

As far as i can tell, nothing since post #20.

He has already been interrogated, deemed not an active threath, and released, so i guess now we're just waiting for the legal system to take it's course.

Thanks. I hope they made the right decision

Your necro bumps are getting better

Whatever you say man, I meant it as a compliment
