Despite several years of no taxation, Rickard Andersson was able to buy ammunition and smoke grenades at the time of the mass murder in Örebro. How it was financed, the police do not know yet.

Right now, we do not have any results from the investigations, so we are still waiting to get a clearer picture of his financial situation, says Niclas Hallgren, deputy regional police chief in Bergslagen to P4 Örebro.

The police have initiated several collaborations to map the suspect's economy and track the purchases he made before the shooting at Campus Risbergska.

We are seeking answers partly by contacting people in his surroundings, of course, but also by investigating digital tracks to try to bring clarity to, among other things, his economy, of course,

They have, among other things, taken help from Europol and the national operational department, Noa.

Who, together with our own experts, are working intensively to bring clarity to this, says Hallgren to the radio.
