One person dead in an apartment in Eskilstuna – the police suspect murder

Both police and ambulance were called to a home in Fröslunda at 6pm on Friday evening and found a deceased person there.

– We have not been able to establish that it is a natural death, and there are signs that some form of crime has been committed, explains Martina Gradian, spokesperson for the police region East.

A person who was in the apartment in question has been arrested and the police have opened a preliminary investigation into murder.

– These are two adults, she says.

Technicians have been on site during the evening and night.

– So it is very early in the investigation and a lot can happen and change, she points out during the Friday evening.

Is there any indication that it could be a gang-related crime?

– It seems to be more of an isolated incident between two people.

Relatives have been notified.
