An executive with the streaming service Spotify was among the four people killed in a truck attack in Stockholm on Friday.
Chris Bevington, a 41-year-old Briton, was Spotify’s director of global partnerships and business development, and worked out of Sweden.
“It is with shock and a heavy heart that I can confirm that Chris Bevington from our Spotify team lost his life in Friday’s senseless attack on Stockholm,” company founder Daniel Ek said in a post on Facebook.
“Chris has been a member of our band for over 5 years,” Ek continued.
“He has had a great impact on not just the business but on everyone who had the privilege to know and work with him. There are no words for how missed he will be or for how sad we all are to have lost him like this.”
A 39-year-old man from Uzbekistan, according to CNN, killed four people and injured 15 more when he rammed a truck into a shopping area in Stockholm. A second suspect was arrested in connection with the attack on Sunday.
