A person has been arrested in connection with the incident.

According to NU healthcare's press service, a woman in her 20s has been taken to hospital with minor injuries.

Security Manager Anna Granlund tells TT that one of the municipality's employees has been taken to hospital.

We confirm that a serious crime has been committed in one of our operations. An employee is receiving care, says Granlund.

The staff is being offered crisis support from today.

TT: Is there a threat against the municipality from earlier?

I cannot comment on that, says Anna Granlund.

The area is cordoned off and several police patrols are in Mellerud due to the incident. A person has been arrested.

We have secured a suspected perpetrator and are not looking for anyone else. Now it's about conducting further investigative measures to clarify exactly what happened, says police spokesperson Adam Isaksson Samara to TT.
