Two men were taken to hospital by ambulance in connection with the altercation. One of the men later died from stab wounds.

Prosecutors announced on Sunday that three men in their 20s have been arrested on suspicion of murder and attempted murder.

All three are being held on the same suspicion, murder and attempted murder. It began as a verbal altercation that developed into a physical confrontation and resulted in one person dying, prosecutor Johan Fröjelin tells TT.

There are plenty of witnesses to the incident and many have already been heard, according to Fröjelin.

"We have more to hear, there were double-digit numbers of people at the scene. Many have seen at least parts of the incident," he says.
