In two days, two shootings occurred in Bagarmossen – in the latter, a 16-year-old boy was shot dead.
The police suspect that the events may be connected, according to information.
They also fear that a local conflict over the drug market could flare up.

Just two days later, another shooting occurred in the area. Then a 16-year-old boy was hit by the shots and he later died in hospital.

Details: Fears local conflict
They are now looking more closely at people with gang connections in the area. Among other things, a 25-year-old man is of interest to them, according to information.
The man, who has so far gone under the radar, is now believed to be trying to take over the drug market in Bagarmossen. He has previously been convicted of several crimes, including aggravated assault.
The drug market in the area has so far belonged to another local group working with Foxtrot, according to sources.
The police fear that things may become more restless in the area and that a conflict may arise between the man and the already established grouping in the area.
However, it is currently unclear whether the shootings have any connection to that.

Details: Weapons found after the murder
The police have not yet arrested anyone for the murder of the 16-year-old boy and it is still unknown what the motive for the act could have been.
On Wednesday, a loaded weapon, clothes, a balaclava and gloves were found in a forest thicket, according to information given to Aftonbladet.
Later, they also found a weapon in a pair of gloves a short distance away from the thicket, according to the information.
