- What I pressed as gross was the object that the suspect had used in connection with the events and that they took place at someone's home, says Deputy Chief Prosecutor Ulrica Grenerfors.

It was the night between Monday and Tuesday that the police were alerted to a residential area in Mantorp in Östergötland County. At 04:00 at night, an unknown person had knocked on a front door and threatened the residents with a pistol-like object through a window. A few minutes later, the police were alerted to another villa in the same area after a man with the same signal knocked on another door.

Do not want to confirm weapons

The man, who is a resident of Tranås municipality, is said to have come across car keys and a car with which he then left the place. Shortly afterwards, he was arrested by police. The police state that no person was physically injured in connection with the events.

There is information that it was a sharp-charged pistol, but it is not something that Deputy Chief Prosecutor Ulrica Grenefors wants to confirm at this stage.

- No, we only assume that it is a pistol-like object. I can not go into any motives either, but the suspect has left a story for us, the prosecutor says.
