The person is suspected on probable cause, the higher level of suspicion, and has been in custody since Wednesday evening. The prosecutor has no further information to provide about the suspect.
The attack took place outdoors on Thursday morning last week, near a school in Viksjö centrum in Järfälla, northwest of Stockholm. The incident prompted the municipality to urge parents with children in primary school to accompany their children to and from school in the coming days.
On Wednesday, a person who had previously been detained in the case was released, and on Thursday the prosecutor announced that a new suspect had been arrested.
