Two adult men have been seriously injured in a shooting in Sundbyberg, according to the police.

It's very difficult to comment on the extent of the injuries, but I perceive it as they are seriously injured, says police spokesperson Helena Boström Thomas.

The two men were found with gunshot wounds in the Rissne district and are now being treated in hospital.

Damage has also been found on a façade.

No one has been arrested.

We have a fairly large resource on site, including dogs, and we are searching the surrounding area, says Boström Thomas.

The area is cordoned off. The police are reviewing cameras in the area and checking people and vehicles.

The police are investigating suspected attempted murder and serious weapons offenses.

The alarm came in at 22.16.
