An apartment building in Frölunda was fired upon during the night to Tuesday. It is the same house that just two days ago was subjected to a detonation that destroyed the entrance and several windows, writes the Gothenburg Post.

Several alarms about loud bangs came in at 02:00, on the same street as the previously exposed apartment building.

– There are several people who have heard a number of shots. Witnesses also see some people leaving the scene in connection with that, says Johan Josarp, officer on duty at the police, to the newspaper.

Once there, the police found evidence that a shooting had taken place.

Several patrols and tracking dogs are looking for perpetrators in the area, but no one has been arrested for the shooting.

The police have launched a preliminary investigation into attempted murder.

A man was arrested on Sunday on suspicion of being behind the explosion in the apartment building, but it is still unclear if the two events are related.
