A man in his 40s has been detained on suspicion of several sexual offenses, reports Jönköpings-Posten.

The man is, among other things, suspected of child rape. The crimes are said to have been committed outdoors over the past month in Jönköping and Huskvarna.

We have a number of incidents in recent times that are being investigated right now. We are looking at connections between locations and events, says Mikael Leidefors, head of the police's serious crimes unit, to the newspaper.
