The man is receiving intensive care for his gunshot wounds and his condition is serious, according to Region Värmland.
A 55-year-old man has been arrested on probable cause suspected of attempted murder.
This is about two people who are acquainted with each other and there is no danger to any outside person. We see it as an isolated incident between these two, says Gabriel Henning, press spokesperson for the Bergslagen police region.
The area is cordoned off and the police conducted a technical investigation and door-to-door inquiries on Wednesday morning.
In the morning, an interrogation was held with the arrested person.
He denies the crime, that's what I can tell, says chief prosecutor Niclas Wargren to TT.
The prosecutor does not want to say much more until an interrogation can be held with the injured man.
