Third person arrested over Uppsala murder investigation

A third person was taken into custody on Saturday, suspected of involvement in the shooting death of a 19-year-old in Uppsala, Upsala Nya Tidning writes.

The person is suspected, on probable grounds, of aggravated protection of a criminal.

It was last Sunday that a 19-year-old man was shot dead in the Kvarngärdet district of Uppsala.

Two other people have already been arrested for the crime. One person is suspected of being an accessory to murder, and a teenage boy is suspected of murder on probable grounds.
