Stockholm [Sweden], October 18: Just two months after raising its threat level, Sweden was in shock on Tuesday over the killing of two of its football fans in a "terror attack" targeting Swedes in Brussels. The country's worst fears came true when a suspect of Tunisian origin living illegally in Belgium gunned down two Swedes and injured a third on Monday evening on a street, just before the start of a Belgium-Sweden international football match. The man was shot by police early Tuesday. The Swedish government, football fans and the public expressed their devastation over the attack.
