Four people were attacked by the same person at two different locations in Västerås in April. Now a 34-year-old man is being prosecuted, suspected of attempted murder, according to SVT Västmanland.

April 19 was a dramatic day in Västerås. First, a teenage boy was attacked with a weapon outside a school. An hour later, three women in their 70s were stabbed by the same perpetrator, a few kilometers away.

After the attacks, the perpetrator fled to a villa garden where he was shot by the police during the arrest.
