According to witness accounts, the girl was stabbed.

A boy under the age of 15 is suspected of attempted murder. The boy was initially arrested, but the arrest was later lifted because he is under 15.

The boy has now been questioned, says senior prosecutor Gustav Friman. He does not want to go into further detail about the boy's attitude to the suspicion of a crime. An evidentiary hearing will probably be held.

It will probably be an evidentiary hearing, says Friman.

An evidentiary hearing means that a court rules on the issue of guilt without imposing any punishment because children under the age of 15 are not of legal age.
