Norway mass killer shouted 'woo hoo' with joy as he went on shooting rampage

Oslo, May 10 (ANI): Norwegian mass killer Anders Behring Breivik cried out in joy as he carried out the bombing and shooting rampage that killed 77 people in Oslo last year.

A survivor of the Norwegian atrocity Tonje Brenna claimed that she had heard Breivik shout ecstatically as bodies fell around her hiding place in the crack of a cliff.

"I am absolutely sure that I heard cries of joy," said Brenna, 24-year-old head of the ruling Labour Party's youth wing, AUF.

"If I had to spell it out, it would be WOO-HOO. Obviously cries for joy," The Telegraph quoted her, as saying.

Breivik, 33-year-old right-wing extremist, has insisted that he never laughed or smiled during the massacre.

"Why would I have laughed when I was there? That is not true. It was horrible. I did not smile," he told the court on April 20.

Breivik has been charged with committing terrorist acts when he first bombed a government building in Oslo, killing eight people, before heading out to Utoya to massacre 69 mostly teenage participants at a summer camp. (ANI)
