US authorities have closed the troubled Silicon Valley Bank and taken control of its assets.

The announcement comes after the troubled bank was yesterday forced to sell a large part of its securities holdings at a loss.

Something that created enormous anxiety and caused the world’s stock markets to crash. Several major banks are among the biggest losers both in Sweden and Europe.

– It is a clear indication that the tough times are really here, said economist Frida Bratt to Aftonbladet earlier today.

The prosecutor has mitigated the suspicions against a 22-year-old man who is in custody after what was considered to be a double murder in Ulricehamn in Western Gotland.

It was in September last year that several men allegedly entered the 22-year-old’s apartment via the balcony. He is said to have killed two of them with a knife, which he has admitted.

The man is now instead suspected of two counts of murder.

That’s what TT writes.

– After getting the entire investigation in place, I believe that it is to be judged as murder, a less serious crime than murder, says Chamber Prosecutor Martin Svensson to P4 Sjuhärad.

A man has been arrested on suspicion of attempted murder after trying to run over police officers outside Sundsvall.

The drama began at 2:30 p.m., when the police tried to stop a white Skoda that had been reported stolen.

Several patrols participated in the operation, and the police had to impound the stolen car to stop the driver.

In connection with the intervention, the driver tried to run over police officers. The police then responded by opening fire at the car.

The man, who is in his 30s, could then be arrested on suspicion of attempted murder. A preliminary investigation has also been opened by the Special Prosecutor’s Chamber, which is routine when the police open fire.

No police officers were injured in the incident.

At 22:00 in the evening, the police announced that the man had been arrested.
