At four in the morning, three of the men, who are in their 20s, were arrested. Later on Saturday morning, another man in his 30s was arrested.

All of them are currently suspected of serious weapons offenses and attempted murder. Interrogations will be held with the arrested and the plaintiffs during the day.

There is good hope of being able to clarify what has happened, says the police's press spokesperson Mats Petterson and continues:

Now, an investigation will take place where we will find out who did what.

The alarm came in to the police an hour after midnight and several patrols were sent to the scene. The two plaintiffs were traveling in a car and were not physically injured.
