Two Men Detained for Tumba Explosion Injuring Mother and Child

Two men in their 30s are detained for the explosion in Tumba, southwest of Stockholm, where a mother and a child were injured. The residence was not the intended target, according to the Prosecution Authority.

A man is detained on probable grounds suspected of gross general endangerment, attempted murder, and offenses against the law on fire-hazardous and explosive goods. The second man is detained on probable grounds for aiding and abetting.

The evidence against the two individuals who are being held in custody looks relatively good, says senior prosecutor Daniel Insulander, who is leading the investigation.

The residence where the explosion occurred was not the intended target. The men had no connection to the address. Daniel Insulander does not want to comment on the information further, but says that the crime has a gang connection.

It may become relevant with more detentions.

It was late on April 28 when the mother and child were injured in an explosion in a row house in Tumba.
