According to left-wing media such as Dagens ETC and Proletären, the man drove straight into a demonstration in support of Palestine, and a large number of people were initially claimed to have been injured. According to protesters, he also shouted “racist” slogans.

“Slaughter it. Palestinians are best dead.”

Another comment from the man about Palestinians stating that you should “kill the shit and use it as fertilizer”. He has been criticized for several of the posts and, among other things, criticized for being a “typical Israel-loving boomer”.

According to Flamman, the man commented, just hours before the incident in Borås, on a video on X in which a car drive into a crowd in the US.

Free Times has gone through the apparently ethnically Swedish man's social media and can confirm that he seems to have a very strong interest in Israel and Islam.
