– Both are under 15 years old. If they were over 15 years old, they would have been judged to be reasonable suspects for this, says senior prosecutor Tomas Olvmyr.
The minor boy who was first detained was initially arrested on suspicion of another crime. He got stuck in a police checkpoint in Malmö.
Family relationship to detainee
The 55-year-old man has a family relationship with a man in his 20s who is in custody on suspicion of a shooting in Skurup two weeks ago. But the police still do not want to comment on the connection.
– Of course we are looking at possible connections between different cases. But we cannot determine anything yet, police spokesperson Evelina Olsson has previously said.
