A “born leader,” a talented dancer, a teenage school president nicknamed JF Kennedy, a stepbrother of the crown princess, an Iraqi-born refugee, a guitar-playing political star, a painter.

Young, smiling, inspirational. Most of them 25 or younger.

Slowly, a picture began emerging Tuesday of the victims of one man’s bombing and shooting rampage that left 76 dead.

A team of dentists, pathologists and crime techniques are working to identify them, Anstein Thread Dahl, chief of the Oslo police, said.

The newspaper Aftenposten reported 57 of the dead were found on the island of Utoya, site of a summer camp for the young leaders of the ruling Labour Party. Another 10 were found in the waters around the island or on the mainland.

On Monday, the number of dead from the bomb blast in Oslo that preceded the island shooting rose to eight from seven.
