Man with gunshot wound in Eskilstuna

Police received an alarm about explosions from the Lagersberg residential area at 01.13 on Sunday night and when police arrived at the scene, a man in his 30s was found with a gunshot wound in a stairwell to an apartment building.

— I cannot say now whether he is life-threateningly injured, I will let the medical services decide that, but the first assessment is that he is badly injured, says inspector Marcus Anefur, press spokesperson at the police region East.

A preliminary investigation into attempted murder and aggravated weapons offense has been launched and the scene is cordoned off for a technical investigation. No one is yet in custody or suspected of the attempted murder.
