Man in his 50s dead after shooting

The man was in an apartment when he was hit by shots and the police suspect that he was shot from outside, through a window.

The police do not want to comment on whether anyone has been arrested

Police spokesperson Patrick Fors cannot answer whether additional people were in the apartment and also does not want to comment on whether anyone has been arrested.

– I cannot go into that at the moment. Several investigative measures are being carried out on site, among other things we are knocking on doors in connection with these multi-family residences that are located around the place where the shooting took place. Suspicious object was found in the area

When the police got there and started searching for a suspected perpetrator, dog handlers found a suspicious object outside.

The site has been cordoned off and the suspicious object will be examined by the police’s bomb disposal squad.

– It’s a little bit away from there, but it’s largely in the same area, says Patric Fors.

The shooting was called in at 04.42 on Monday night and the police are now searching the area with several patrols in search of one or more perpetrators.
