Last spring, two women were assaulted by a knife-armed man near the Rågsved metro station in southern Stockholm.

A 23-year-old woman was first assaulted in a park area and later that night, a 25-year-old woman was forced into her apartment under a knife threat. However, the perpetrator left the scene because the woman's partner was at home.

Almost three months later, on June 14, a woman was assaulted and raped by a masked man in the same area. Three weeks later, on July 7, another woman was assaulted and raped in Rågsved.

During the investigation of possible links between the assaults, the police called 200 people for DNA testing.

Man grabbed

Now a person has been arrested and arrested.

- We have one person arrested on suspicion of rape and two attempted rape in Rågsved, says Anders Bryngelsson, at the Stockholm Police.

Police have previously issued a phantom image of a man suspected of assault.

Does the person you now arrest the man look like in the picture?

- I can't go into that.
