A 19-year-old man was arrested on Friday on probable cause on suspicion of two cases of murder in Luleå. – In questioning, the man has admitted to the crime and has given a story about what has happened, including that a form of restraint has been used. We have a pretty clear picture of what has happened. The man is related to both the man and the woman who were found dead, says District Attorney Åsa Valter, who leads the preliminary investigation. The double murder happened early Thursday morning. Neighbors suddenly heard “roars and screams” in the villa idyll and later saw a bloodied man being arrested by police with guns drawn. Managed to escape According to information to TV4 Nyheterna, the 19-year-old had attacked with a knife and hacked to death the victims, a man in his 20s and a woman in her 45s. Both were his family members. Another person was in the villa but managed to escape the crime and call 112, according to several sources. Medicated for a while TV4 Nyheterna can now tell you that the 19-year-old has a documented history of mental illness for some time and has been medicated for it by the healthcare system. The police are working on the basis that it may also be the background to the man’s crime, according to the same information. Luleå district court must decide whether the detainee must undergo a so-called section 7 investigation, a small psychological examination.
