A 15-year-old boy has been detained after a shooting at a row house door in Skarpnäck in southern Stockholm. The police do not want to disclose what role in the incident the boy is suspected of having had.

The whole incident is being investigated as an attempted murder, but according to the police, no one was injured. However, there were several people in the house when the shots were fired at the door.

Residents in the area contacted the police at around 22:30 after hearing loud bangs, and upon arrival, it was established that there were bullet holes on the house door.

During the night, the police have been knocking on doors and technicians have examined the scene.

We are now going through the investigation material we have so far to get started and piece together this puzzle, figure out who did this and why at this particular address, says the police's press spokesperson Daniel Wikdahl.
