Boy suspect

Later, the police bring in a minor for questioning. The boy is suspected of the crime and the case is classified as attempted murder.

Due to his young age, social services have been involved.

– As it is such a young person, this boy is taken care of. Now it’s up to the prosecution, the preliminary investigation itself, says Jens Andersson.
