In the Swedish city, the police detained a 16-year-old boy who is suspected of killing three people. The tragedy occurred on April 29 in the premises of one of the local hairdressers where the shooting took place. About it reports Reuters with reference to the Swedish prosecutor's office.
According to law enforcement officers, an active investigation is underway. Investigators interrogate witnesses, analyze data from mobile phones and study other seized materials to establish the circumstances of the incident and possible motives for the attacker.
The police noted that it was too early to talk about the connection of the incident with organized criminal groups. However, the version that the shooting could be related to the activity of gangs is considered one of the main ones and is checked "especially carefully".
Despite the shocking nature of the event, the police called the shooting "a single case" and stated that it was not related to large -scale celebrations on the occasion of Valpurgie Night, which traditionally occur in Sweden on May 1.
The incident has caused widespread resonance in society, especially against the backdrop of increased concern about crime among young people and armed violence in the country.
