Two men – both in their 20s – were arrested during the Midsummer weekend. On Monday, two women – 53 and 18 years old – and a 20-year-old man were arrested.

The two arrested women are, according to the Prosecution Authority, related to the people who were affected by the violent acts in Skaraborg a few weeks ago.

"A possible motive for the violent acts could be linked to the serious narcotics offenses that the individuals are now being held in custody for", says prosecutor Sofia Karlsson according to a press release.

In the night towards June 3, a villa outside Grästorp was subjected to an arson attack at the same time as an explosion occurred at an apartment in Lidköping. The villa had also been subjected to a shooting a few days earlier.
