An apartment in Mariehäll, Stockholm was shot at with several bullets on Monday evening.

The police were alerted to the scene at around 11 pm after the discovery that at least one shot had been fired at the apartment in the multi-family house.

When we arrived at the scene, it emerged that traces were found indicating that at least one shot had been fired at the apartment door, says Anna Westberg, press spokesperson for the Stockholm police.

Several people were in the apartment during the evening, but no one was injured.

They barely noticed that shots had been fired at the door, so we don't know exactly when it happened, but probably during the evening, says Anna Westberg.

Several police patrols are on the scene throughout the night, and a technical investigation will be conducted. A preliminary investigation into aggravated weapons offense and attempted murder has been initiated.
