“Possible threat image”
According to prosecutor Tomas Engman, the motive picture is unclear. The two people have no previous relationship with each other.
According to information to Aftonbladet, the detainee is a 17-year-old who was previously convicted of minor drug offences.
Due to the circumstances of the case, it has been classified as confidential.
– It is somewhat more common when it comes to this type of case when there may be a possible threat against a suspect and his relatives, says Tomas Engman.
At the moment, he does not see any connections to gang crime.
– Not that is clear anyway. The police work with the background and to strengthen the whole, he says.
