Roy Paulsson, 73, found a “Palmevapen” when he cleared a death estate.
Now he wants to get rid of it.
But the police will not come and pick it up.
A few weeks ago, Vittsjöbon Roy Paulsson made an unexpected find as he went through a stuffy office drawer in a relative’s estate.
There was a weapon.
He suspected that it was a revolver in the caliber .357 Magnum with a short pipe, weighing one and a half kilos.
– It’s massive stuff, it’s no plastic stuff or toys, he says.
He brought the weapon, which he thinks looks authentic, home.
– I reacted and said that ‘damn what a cool, this weapon I can take care of’. Then I had it at home two, three weeks and then I thought ‘damn in the sea, I don’t want this at home, this could be something that someone could use’.
The 73-year-old suspected that the revolver, who is plugged, could be turned into a sharp weapon.
The police promised to show up
On Thursday, he decided to call 114 14.
He told the police that it did not feel comfortable to have the weapon at home and wanted to get rid of it. Then he was told that the local police would come and pick it up during the day.
But no police officer has heard.
– I think that is very strange that you should be a little more chopped when it comes to such stuff, I think, says Roy Paulsson.

New message: We’ll
The police in the South Police Region cannot answer why they have not picked up the revolver in two days, but after Aftonbladet called, new news comes.
– It has not been done so we solve it by sending an emergency car on the case today so they can pick it up, says press spokesman Evelina Olsson.
She says that it is common for them to receive calls from people who have found old weapons, old ammunition or old grenades from the Armed Forces in the estate.
– Then you call us and then we make sure it can be taken care of safely, says Olsson.
“Palme” weapon
The model that Roy Paulsson found in his home is not any weapon.
The same model has been pointed out as the weapon used by the Palm murder, after the bullets from a .357 Magnum were found on Sveavägen.
But Roy Paulsson doesn’t care.
– Without just want to know what is it for something I have at home? Is it something dangerous? I want to get rid of it. I don’t want it lying in the box, he says.
