The police were alerted just after 6 pm on Friday evening about a shooting at the subway station in Alby, southwest of Stockholm.
Those who called in said they heard five to six shots, and that you can see how someone is lying on the floor, says the police's press spokesperson Rebecca Landberg.
The shooting drama occurred in the ticket hall and on surveillance footage, which Expressen has taken part of, you can see how people who are at the station run in panic when they hear the shots.
Those who alerted say that the person is shot, but then they do not say much more because it is tumultuous and they are probably running from there. It happened at a time when many are moving around at the station, says Landberg.
The man was hit by several shots and is seriously injured, but not life-threatening.
The subway station in Alby was blocked off for several hours during Friday evening and police patrols were deployed in the hunt for a suspected perpetrator who was seen running from the scene.
We have a suspect in the case, but if it is the person who is seen fleeing the scene in the surveillance images, I cannot confirm.
A number of people have been checked, but on Saturday afternoon, there is still no one arrested in the case, which is being investigated as an attempted murder.
From experience, we know that there are often more people behind a violent act, but it is difficult to say at present.
