A Swedish-led cell within the extremist, violence-promoting online sect 764 was behind two car fires in Ängelholm last year, according to an investigation by SVT News Helsingborg.

In early November 2025, three suspected car fires occurred in Ängelholm. Two of them were allegedly caused by the violent extremist group "764", according to SVT, which has verified that a video from the group, in which a car is set on fire, was filmed at the crime scene.

According to the investigation, the cell is led by a 19-year-old Swede. Another Swede who is part of the group claims in chats to have started the fire.

The internet cult "764" was founded by an American teenager in 2020, who is currently serving an 80-year prison sentence for child pornography. Young boys and men in several countries have, among other things, groomed, exploited and sexually blackmailed children, carried out several unprovoked stabbings and at least one murder in the name of the movement.
