In early November, a person in Johanneshov was subjected to people's robbery, robbery, illegal detention and attempted extortion. Three perpetrators, under gun threats, held a person in their teens against his will in an apartment where, under gun threats, they took a cellphone and forced the plaintiff to borrow money. The crime victim managed to escape from the apartment and alert the police.

On December 1, another person in Enskede was exposed, also in his teens, to a crime similar to that in November. The victim was on his way home when two men showed up and forced things by punching him in the face. The plaintiff was then forced to accompany several ATMs where, during an extended process, the perpetrators threatened, beaten and degraded the owner of the property in order to persuade him to withdraw money. The incident is classified as gross robbery, extortion and abuse in court case.

Police were able to see similarities between the crimes and arrest four people aged 15-18 who have now been arrested. One of the detainees is suspected of interference on both occasions.
