Sweden to tighten gun laws after mass shooting at school

I am disappointed with Reuters, they are a big international news agency and they can't even go to Wikipedia and copy paste the proper spelling of Örebro?
Yeah, yeah, I know that the english language does not contain the Swedish letters å, ä and ö, but come on, at least use the proper spelling for these letters in english, ao, ae, and oe, in this case Örebro would be Oerebro in english.
It might be part of their guidelines to only use the English alphabet for the location at the start of the article
But "Oerebro" would still work...
Maybe, but it seems like many just drop the umlaut (or whatever it's called in Swedish) rather than trying to mimic the sound: here's a BBC article that did the same as Reuters and here's TripAdvisor also calling it Orebro
Sure but it's harder to read and understand for most people, including me. The only time I remember seeing it is when my last gets mangled on documents when travelling by air.
