The man was traveling in a car when he was arrested in central Östersund, around 11 o'clock in the morning, police say. The man was arrested later in the day, and prosecutors have launched a preliminary investigation into preparation for murder.

This should be both information received and seizures made in the car that led to the suspicions. However, no person was injured.

Due to the fact that the preliminary investigation is in a sensitive situation, the police do not provide any further information at this time.
