Speaking to media after the attack, Oyvind Aas, the Police Chief of the county, said authorities had not ruled out the possibility of a terror attack. "From the course of events, it is natural to consider whether this is an act of terrorism," he said. However, Aas added, "the apprehended person has not been questioned, and it is therefore too early to say anything about this and what was the person's motivation."
