A man in his 20s has been arrested on suspicion of shooting dead a man in Gothenburg. He is also suspected of two counts of attempted murder against two younger boys who were in the line of fire.

On September 9, a 35-year-old man was shot to death with multiple gunshots in Tolered on Hisingen. The murder took place near a school.

The suspect was arrested late last week and taken into custody on Monday afternoon.

In addition to the murder, he is also suspected of two attempted murders, reports Göteborgs-Posten .

"It concerns two 13-year-old boys who happened to be in the firing line," says district prosecutor Maria Thorell to the newspaper.

The suspect denies the crime.
