A person called and said they had seen a lifeless person lying outside the motel, says police spokesperson Per Fahlström.
Life-saving measures were initiated, but the man's life could not be saved. He had injuries that make him suspected of being the victim of a crime.
The alarm about the incident was received at 1 a.m. A preliminary investigation into murder was initiated and a man suspected of the crime was arrested in the area.
Both men are middle-aged, says Fahlström.
The arrested man was taken into custody later on Sunday. Prosecutors will decide by Wednesday at the latest whether to request detention, according to the Public Prosecution Service's press service.
