A fight is said to have broken out between three guests and a security guard after a guest was ejected from a restaurant. Another guard joined the tumult to help – and later died.

The police initially believed that the guard had suffered a heart attack, writes Expressen.

There are very unclear circumstances surrounding the guard's death. Now the investigation must show what this is due to, says Susanna Rinaldo, press spokesperson for the Stockholm police region to TT.

Three people are detained on suspicion of violence against an official, which does not appear to have anything to do with the deceased.

"The investigation is in an early stage and currently the detention is not linked to the death, but it will be further investigated", says prosecutor Filippa Henkow in a press release.
