A man in his early teens has been found shot outside in Upplands Väsby north of Stockholm, according to the police.
The police were alerted to the incident at 10:21 p.m. and were alerted to a “big fight” and a loud bang that was perceived as a shot.
– It was probably two people arguing. The person who contacted the police later sees an injured person, says Mats Eriksson, press spokesperson at the police.
The police state that the man is unlikely to have life-threatening injuries. An ambulance helicopter has loaded the injured person to transport him to hospital.
The police are now searching for the perpetrator in the area. The incident is being investigated as attempted murder.
