Swiss authorities have apprehended a suspect in connection with a deadly shooting at a rave in the town of Aarau, Switzerland, which left one Italian woman dead and several others injured.

The assault occurred after the party had concluded, with an estimated 100 individuals still present at the location when the gunfire commenced.
The perpetrator has been identified as a Swiss national, believed to have acted alone. Police are currently probing the incident's background and motive, with a single perpetrator suspected.
