The police were alerted to a shooting at a flat in a block of flats in Akalla, north-west Stockholm, early on Saturday morning. There were also signs outside the flat suggesting that an object had detonated.

Two adults and a one-year-old child were in the flat, according to the police website. One person was slightly injured by flying glass.

There were shots through the window and there were damages outside where the object detonated, says Helena Boström Thomas, who does not want to go into further details.

According to the police, there is no indication that the affected family has any connection to criminality, and it does not appear that the family was targeted.

It does not look that way at present, says Boström Thomas.

Whether there are other individuals at the address with connections to criminality, Boström Thomas does not want to comment on.

Now, an investigation is underway, looking at many factors surrounding this, says Boström Thomas.

No arrests have been made in the case yet. An investigation into attempted murder, serious weapons offences, and reckless endangerment has been launched.
