Police in Sweden have arrested a man in North Stockholm, who reportedly confessed to Friday's deadly terror attack.

According to a report from the Aftonbladet, the unidentified man had some light injuries when he was taken into custody.

"One person has been arrested who may be connected with the incident," the police was quoted as saying.

The police have confirmed that at least four people were killed in the attack. There were also at least 15 people wounded, nine of them seriously, after a hijacked beer truck was driven through a crowd in the centre of town. The truck stopped after crashing into a department store.
