We received the first call at 23.32 that shots had been fired into the apartment, when one or more unknown perpetrators shot into an apartment where several people were, says Sofia Jiglind, press spokesperson for the police region Bergslagen.

No one was injured – sheer luck, according to the police.

The police have had a large operation on site during the night, and the area has been cordoned off. Technicians are still working on the site at 8 am on Sunday morning. Now the police have started door-to-door knocking in the area, and are talking to those who may have seen something.

It is still too early to say anything about the background to the incident, according to Sofia Jiglind. There is also no suspect.

This is what we are looking at now, who and why someone does this.

A preliminary investigation has been initiated, with three cases of attempted murder and serious weapons offenses.
