It was in October last year that a boy under 15 years old fired several shots at the facade of the Israeli defense company.

He has confessed everything and has cooperated with the police, says prosecutor Åsa Nilsson to SVT.

The boy is too young to be prosecuted and since he has confessed, there is no reason for a so-called witness trial against him either, according to the prosecutor.

On the other hand, five other people are being prosecuted who are suspected of having been involved. It involves, among other things, a teenager who is suspected of having ordered the shooting.

The person who is actually believed to be behind the deed has not been identified yet.

We interpret that person as the main instigator, says Åsa Nilsson.
