Boy to hospital after attempted murder

A boy in Malmö has been found with stab or cut injuries.
The incident is being investigated as attempted murder and the boy has been taken to hospital in an ambulance.
– We are in the early stages of the investigation, while we are looking for one or more perpetrators, says Rickard Lundqvist, press spokesperson at the police.

The police were alerted at 5pm about a boy under 15 who was found with stab or cut injuries in the Rosengård district of Malmö. Both an ambulance and the police were sent to the scene.

There is no information on the boy’s condition at the moment, but he was taken to hospital by ambulance.

– There is a lot that we have to gather in the way of information, we do that through witness interviews if there are any and we have camera surveillance that we go through, says Rickard Lundqvist.

No one has been arrested. The police are now working to locate the crime scene. An area where the boy was found has been cordoned off. At the moment, it is unclear if there are any witnesses to the incident.

– But it is a densely built-up residential area and it is at such a time that people come home from work and move around, so it is likely that there are witnesses, says Rickard Lundqvist.

The police have not been able to hear the boy yet, the incident is being investigated as attempted murder.
