A man has been found dead at a home care office in Stockholm.
The man lay dead in the office for several hours before he was discovered by his colleagues, according to information to Aftonbladet.
– I can confirm that there has been a death. We are investigating the death as a workplace accident, says Helena Boström Thomas at the police.
It was earlier in January this year that the staff at a home care office in Stockholm found a colleague dead – several hours after the colleague had finished his work shift.
According to information to Aftonbladet, the man, who is middle-aged, worked as a night employee at the home care office. Several hours after the day staff arrived at the office, they received information that the man did not come home after work.
The staff must then have started looking for the man and found him lifeless, approximately eight hours after the man’s work shift had ended.
The colleagues must have started a resuscitation attempt, but the man’s life could not be saved.
The business manager does not want to comment on the incident
Helena Boström Thomas, at the police in Stockholm, can confirm the death – but does not want to go into any details about the investigation.
– I can confirm that there has been a death. We are investigating the death as a workplace accident. It’s about the fact that we have to establish whether there has been any kind of crime, says Helena Boström Thomas, at the police.
When Aftonbladet reaches the head of the home service, she does not want to answer any questions about the death.
– I cannot comment on the case, she says.
