The two people were found shot to death in a car in a parking lot in Kallhäll during the night. The police have later announced that the victims are two men in their 20-25 years of age.

The witness, who lives in the residential building right next to the parking lot, tells that he was watching series when he heard bangs outside the window. The alarm call he made to SOS just before twenty past twelve.

I thought that was not fireworks. It sounded very distinct, quite bright. There were six-seven shots that came quite close together.

At the same time, he saw a taxi and what he interpreted as a man on the parking lot who was lit up by something, maybe a mobile phone. The man then fled into the nearby forest.

He was very calm and it did not feel like he was running away in a panic.

After just a few minutes, the police arrived at the scene and a helicopter has been circling over the residential area during the night.

The blockades have now been lifted and the car has been towed away.

One person has been arrested and detained, suspected of aiding and abetting murder, but so far no one has been arrested suspected of firing the actual shots.
