Editing Norrmalmstorg robbery (section)

==Aftermath==
Both Olsson and Olofsson were convicted, and Olofsson was sentenced to an extended prison term for the robbery. He claimed, however, that he had not helped Olsson but had only tried to save the hostages by keeping the situation calm. He was later acquitted in the [[Svea Court of Appeal]] and served only the remainder of his prior sentence. He went on to meet the hostage Kristin Enmark several times, and their families became friends. He also committed several more crimes.<ref name="AB 2000-05-21">{{cite news |url=http://wwwc.aftonbladet.se/nyheter/0005/21/clark.html |newspaper=[[Aftonbladet]] |title=Exklusiv intervju med Clark Olofsson |first=Suzanne |last=Kordon |date=21 May 2000 |accessdate=21 July 2008 |language=sv |archive-date=7 November 2020 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20201107195412/https://wwwc.aftonbladet.se/nyheter/0005/21/clark.html |url-status=live}}</ref>
