Several callers are said to have heard loud bangs, and when we arrive, we can confirm that a shooting has occurred, says police spokesperson Adam Isaksson Samara.

No one is reported to have been injured. The police are now searching for one or more perpetrators.

Just a few hours earlier, at 15.07, the police were alerted to another shooting, this time targeting a door to an apartment in a multi-family house in Hisings Backa.

When we arrive at the scene, we can confirm that there is a bullet hole, says Adam Isaksson Samara.

No one has been arrested and there are no reports of injuries.

The resident was not at home at the time, which makes it difficult to determine the exact time of the shooting. The police have also been unable to establish any threat against the person or address.

Both incidents are classified as attempted murder and aggravated weapons offenses.

Another shooting occurred in the area on Sunday, when a man in his 20s was shot and injured.

Any potential connections are, of course, something we always look into, but I have no information suggesting that there are any links between the incidents, says Adam Isaksson Samara.
