The 35-year-old suspect was an unemployed loner who didn’t “seem to like people,” his family said.
Cops believe the gunman turned his weapon on himself but his motive was not immediately known.
Authorities have not revealed the shooter’s identity but the suspect’s family shared worrying details to the Swedish media.
Cops raided his home on Tuesday afternoon and added that the suspect has a firearm licence and believe he acted alone.
His relatives claimed the suspect has become a recluse and isolated himself from family and friends, according to the MailOnline.
One family member said: “We haven’t had much contact with him in recent years.
“As a child he was different but lively. He did well in school.
“But in recent years he has had a hard time. He is not working.”
Another relative shared how the suspected gunman had completely changed in recent years.
They said: “He’s really a loner. He used to have a friend he hung out with a lot, but not now. He wants to be by himself.
“He doesn’t seem to like people.”
This family member added the suspect had little contact with his parents who apparently travelled a lot but he enjoyed taking care of their dog.
Terrifying footage from inside the school captured the shooter prowling the corridors.
The grainy shot caught the gunman stalking the halls while heavily armed with what was thought to be an automatic weapon.
More terrifying footage caught inside the education centre saw students laying silently in their classrooms in the hopes of sparring themselves from the horror attack.
A gut-wrenching text message was sent from a teacher inside the centre to his friend.
The pal said: “He wrote that there was automatic weapon shooting at the school and that they had taken shelter in a room.
“Then he wrote that he loved me.”
A teacher at the school, Lena Warenmark, told Swedish broadcaster SVT: “We heard gunshots very close to our study. There were probably ten shots.”
