The man in Sunne tells the newspaper about the visit to Örebro, where he met 35-year-old Rickard Andersson and retrieved the gun cabinet in his apartment in Örebro together with the help of three other people.

I saw that there was a bed and a desk with a stationary computer. And five-ten moving boxes. Everything was dismantled. It really looked like he was emptying the apartment, says the man to Fryksdalsbygden.

But I didn't see any weapons. I could never dream that he would have any.

Rickard Andersson claimed that he had inherited the cabinet and was moving. He behaved strangely and only responded to greetings, according to the man. The gun cabinet itself looked unused.

Early in the morning after the incident, the man received a visit from the police, who had found his number in Rickard Andersson's phone. That he had dealt with a suspected mass murderer describes him as shocking.

It was unpleasant, cold shivers ran down my spine. But I could never in my wildest imagination believe that he owned and had a license for weapons. The cabinet just stood there, dusty and unused, says he to the newspaper.
