A 15-year-old boy and a 43-year-old man were killed when two perpetrators opened fire with automatic weapons in Farsta in southern Stockholm this summer. Now a suspected instigator has been arrested in his absence, reports Mitt i.
Another 15-year-old boy and a 65-year-old woman were injured when shots began to fire at the subway station in Farsta on Saturday, June 10.
The suspected shooters, two 19-year-old men, were arrested after a dramatic car chase and have been in custody since then on suspicion of murder, attempted murder and aggravated weapons offences.
In August, two 18-year-olds were arrested on suspicion of two counts of aiding and abetting murder and aiding and abetting attempted murder. Now, a fifth person has been arrested in his absence on suspicion of being the one who caused the killers to carry out the brutal act.
Prosecutor Angelica Runesson tells Mitt i that charges will be delayed until after the turn of the year.
