A person has been detained following yesterday's fatal shooting in Södertälje, according to TV4 News.

It was around 4 am on Tuesday morning when the police and ambulance were alerted to an apartment in the Blombacka area of Södertälje. A seriously injured man was found there.

Lifesaving measures were initiated by medical personnel on site, but later the police announced that the man had died from his injuries.

According to TV4 News, a person has been detained on reasonable suspicion of aiding and abetting murder.

I cannot provide any further information at this point about the nature of the suspicion, the age or gender of the suspected person, motive, or potential links to criminal networks, says prosecutor Mikael Carlsson, who is the lead investigator, to the channel.

The person was detained on Tuesday evening.
