NORWAY - Two Terror Attacks

"Norway Reels as Death Toll Rises From Day of Unexplained Horror" PBS Newshour 7/22/2011

Excerpts from transcript

JUDY WOODRUFF (Newshour): At least 17 people were killed today in two terror attacks in Norway. An official said the total could go higher. So far, one person, a Norwegian man, has been arrested.

In the first attack, a bomb exploded outside government buildings in Oslo, where at least seven people died. Officials said 10 more were killed in the second attack, on a nearby island, when a gunman opened fire at a youth camp.

BILL NEELY, Independent Television News: Fear in his voice, death on the streets of Oslo.

Anywhere, this scene would be shocking. In peaceful Norway, it is stunning. But for Norway, there was more horror to come -- on a peaceful island near the capital, the scene of a massacre, the bodies of more than a dozen people motionless on the shore, a double mass murder, connected, say police. But who did this?
