Two men were taken to hospital on Friday evening, both with gunshot wounds. The incident occurred in Handen in Haninge municipality. The alarm was received on 23.07.

One man died and the other is said to be seriously injured.

The injured man has not been able to be interviewed by the police. He is still being treated in hospital.

The police do not want to go into whether the young men are known to the police from before.

– At the stage we are in now, we do not comment on the plaintiffs other than that they are in their 20s.

“Safe track”

In video material that TV4 Nyheterna has seen, at least one gun can be seen on the ground at the crime scene. Something the police do not want to confirm.

– We have secured traces and seized the place. But what kind of tracks and seizures we made is not something I will tell you, except for a car that shows damage, which makes it interesting for us, says Daniel Wikdahl.

The police are investigating the incident as murder and attempted murder.

Relatives have been notified.
