Oslo shooting: Memorial service takes place at Oslo Cathedral

Two people died and twenty one were wounded on Saturday in what police are treating as an act of Islamist terrorism.

A gay bar was one of the targeted locations and a 42-year-old man was arrested and charged with murder, attempted murder and terrorist acts.

Oslo’s Pride parade, scheduled for Saturday, was canceled.

But speaking at the service, Norway’s Prime Minister Jonas Gahr Stoere said calling it off did not deter the fight against discrimination, prejudices and hate.
