Serious crime in central Uppsala – two arrested

The police confirmed on Wednesday morning that the operation in Industristaden concerned the seizure of a large amount of narcotics and weapons that were found both in a residence and in an adjacent storeroom.

A 35-year-old man and a 30-year-old woman have now been arrested on suspicion of serious drug offenses and serious weapons offences. According to the police, the arrest must have been peaceful.

According to police spokesperson Mathias Rutegård, the case is not connected to gang crime or the ongoing wave of violence.

– We are investigating it as a separate incident, says Mathias Rutegård.

According to Mathias Rutegård, the incident has been prompted by a “planned and solid investigative work”.

– It was not an emergency event in that way.
