Norway: island shooting death toll rises to at least 80

The suspect is reported to be Anders Behring Breivik
"The death toll rose sharply after police began recovering bodies from the water surrounding the Utoeya island outside Oslo, where the shootings took place.
The attack at the youth camp came just hours after a bomb attack outside government buildings in Oslo killed seven people.
A 32-year-old man, named by Norwegian media as Anders Behring Breivik who has reported links to the far-Right, was being questioned by police in connection with the attacks.
Initially the number of dead on the wooded island was put at 10, but early on Saturday morning they said they had discovered more bodies and that the gunman had killed at least 80 people.
The mass shootings are among the worst in history and is the worst violence to hit Norway since the second world war."
