Cyclists are attacked – and abused

Several cyclists reported on Monday morning that they were attacked by a man while cycling along Gustavsviksvägen in Örebro.

– This applies to a number of cyclists, but not all of them have reported but managed to slip past, says Lars Hedelin, police spokesperson.

Suspected of assault

A man was said to have knocked over a female cyclist and dealt blows to a male cyclist. The woman was slightly injured when she was pulled over.

According to witnesses, the attacking man, who is in his 50s, attacked several cyclists and tried to pull them over.

The man was identified by police patrol and is now suspected of assault and vandalism.

– He’s not left to gather anymore, says Lars Hedelin.
