It was Monday morning that police were alerted to the asylum accommodation outside Halmstad after an alarm about a knife abuse.

Two people are said to have been attacked. The suspected perpetrator at the age of 25 was stopped by on-site security personnel before police arrived. He was then arrested and has been held until Wednesday's detention hearing in Halmstad District Court.

Probably suspected

The attack is deemed to be so serious the prosecutor classifies it as attempted murder. The court also buys that description and decides that the man should be arrested and he is on probable cause suspected of the crimes.

Among other things, there is a risk that the man will deviate if he does not sit behind the lock and boom while the incident is being investigated further.

Three to hospitals

Three men, including the suspect, were taken to hospital after the incident.

Two of them were able to leave the healthcare facility the same day.
