Around 01:00 on the night of Saturday, someone allegedly tried to stab a 16-year-old boy near a school in Hallstahammar.
– We suspect that there is something that has caused this man to try to stab him. Some kind of dispute or fight, says Magnus Jansson Klarin, press spokesperson for the police in the central region.
There must have been several people at the scene, including witnesses who could give a signal. With the help of that, the police were able to arrest a 35-year-old man. The man was later arrested on suspicion of attempted aggravated assault.
The boy was not injured.
