A deadly bow and arrow attack in Norway which left five people dead appears to have been an act of terror.

In a press release on Thursday, police said Brathen was due to appear in court on Friday.

The suspect, a 37-year-old Danish citizen named Espen Andersen Brathen, had converted to Islam and there were fears he had been radicalised.

However, a motive has not yet been determined.
