Reham Attala, 21, studies law at the city’s university and tells me she's lived in Orebro for 11 years.
"I’m so sad and scared," she says near the site of the shooting. "This shouldn’t have happened."
Reham explains that her dad is Syrian and her mum is Palestinian, but Sweden has been her home.
While the police say they have not yet identified a motive for Sweden’s worst mass shooting, Reham is alarmed that the man police believe to be the perpetrator attacked a school where Swedish for Immigrants (SFI) courses are taught.
"Those people lost yesterday were studying Swedish and this makes me think about my future and am I even going to live here, should I have children here? All these questions."
