According to ''Aftonbladet'', Pettersson had visited right-wing extremist groups at social media sites supporting [[Adolf Hitler]] and [[Nazi Germany]]. He had also joined a group on Facebook that wants to stop immigration to Sweden. The Swedish Security Service were called in to investigate these findings. Pettersson had no criminal record and was not a member of any political organisation, but had supported a petition by the Sweden Democrats to initiate a referendum on immigration. He left a handwritten note at his home in which he declared that something had to be done about immigration, and that he did not expect to survive his spree. | |||
