The gang, which consists of between five and eight girls, has targeted younger girls and provoked and harassed them. The victims have been randomly selected.

Thomas Fuxborg, press spokesperson for police region Väst, describes an incident at a hamburger restaurant in Borås.

There, they went up to a 12-year-old girl who was sitting and eating, took her food and started eating it in front of her. They do everything to provoke a reaction. Then it hits, or whatever they do, he says to BT.

14-year-old "Emma" tells Aftonbladet how the gang stopped her on her way home from school. She felt that they wanted to provoke a fight and saw that one of them was filming with a mobile camera.

Then one of the girls grabbed my hair and pulled it. I almost did not understand what was happening.

Now the police have started to get a handle on who the girls in the gang are. Some of them are not liable to punishment and some are over 15. Not all of them have been involved in all the crime occasions.

Often, there is one or two who are very driving and get the others to follow. At present, we feel that we have probably gotten rid of them. That they have become aware that they are suspected, he says to BT.
