A man has been taken to hospital with serious injuries after a suspected shooting outside in Linköping late on Saturday evening.

– We have a lot of patrols on site, says Tommy Thorngren, press spokesperson at the police.

The incident is classified as attempted murder and the suspected crime scene has been cordoned off pending a technical investigation. In parallel with this, the police are looking for one or more suspected perpetrators.

– We have not made any arrests, but on the other hand checked a number of people to see who is moving in the area, says Tommy Thorngren.

Is this connected to gang crime?

– It is too early to say, but it is clear that it has all happened in a way that makes one start thinking along those lines, says Tommy Thorngren.
