We initiated an investigation after information emerged. In connection with this, we conducted a control of a boy under 15 years old who had an automatic weapon, says police spokesperson Nils Norling to TT.

According to TV4, the raid took place at a hotel in Malmö.

Since he is not criminally liable, he cannot be formally suspected of anything. The control took place indoors, more than that I cannot say right now, says Nils Norling.

The boy was taken into custody on Saturday and later the same evening, the investigation continued, which led to the arrest of a 17-year-old boy as well.

He could be arrested a bit later. This 17-year-old is now detained, suspected of preparing for murder and serious weapons offenses, says Norling.
