- The events of the night show that it takes many years to build security and that it can be ruined in a second. Now it is clear what is behind this, but it is clear that no matter who is affected, it will be just as brutal, he tells SVT News East.

What can you say to the Norrköping residents who feel insecure today?

- In this situation it is not words that help but it is just action. I realize it will take time to regain security, but we must believe that it is possible. We have had four years of a calmer situation where the criminal gang has been pushed back, but I realize that it is overshadowed by the turmoil today, says Lars Stjernkvist.

What kind of action is required?

- The most important thing is to give the police all possible support. For some years now we have a very good cooperation with the police. They help us in the preventive work and we do everything to support their work. But today it is a real setback, says Lars Stjernkvist.
