KONGSBERG, Norway – Last Wednesday media outlets reported on a man armed with a bow and arrow who killed five people and wounded three others, including an off-duty police officer. Updated reports note that other weapons were used in the attacks. The alleged perpetrator of the attacks was Espen Andersen Braathen, 37, who was detained by law enforcement within a little over 30 minutes from the time the first attack was reported.

Pagan musician Andréa Meyer (Haugen) was among the victims.

Meyer released albums under the names Hagalaz’ Runedance, Nebelhexë, Andréa Nebel, and Aghast Manor. Her work on Hagalaz Runedance featured an ambient neo-folk sound, her later work was often noted for its dark and haunting effect.
