The prosecutor closes the investigation into the high-profile knife drama that took place in Eskilstuna in early June between two youth gangs, Ekuriren reports.

Four 15-year-olds were injured so badly in the fight that they needed emergency hospital treatment.

Initially, three people between the ages of 15 and 17 were suspected, but the suspicions were later dismissed against two of them.

Now prosecutor Maria Lindstedt Estberg announces that the preliminary investigation against all of them is closed.

The reason is that the investigation has not succeeded in finding out who was guilty of what.
