We received a call about a gunshot wound in an apartment door. When we arrived at the scene, we were able to confirm it, says the police's press spokesperson Per Fahlström.

A preliminary investigation with the classification attempted murder and serious weapons offense has been initiated, and a police operation is underway to search for the perpetrator or perpetrators.

The police have cordoned off the area and are waiting for a technical investigation. The police will also be going door-to-door in the area to find out if anyone has seen anything, and they will also check if surveillance cameras in the vicinity have captured anything of interest.

According to the initial information, there was no one in the apartment when the door was shot.

It's too early to say, according to Per Fahlström, whether it's about one or multiple shots.
