Man was named Joakim Robin Berggren (wich sounds quite swedish to me), born in Sweden in 1984
and was presumebly under the influence of drugs.

Let’s get this right a mad Swede with a history of mental illness called Joakim Robin Bergrenn rather than Bjorg Karlsson ( surname usually based on the idea of ‘son of’ ).While it’s anyone’s guess where Robin :confused: :laughing: fits into the Aryan name group. ) Drives a locally registered 7.5 tonner loaded with gas bottles in a threatening manner in Barcelona.Some might believe it. :wink:
