The boy was also threatened with a weapon-like object, and was forced to hand over several belongings to the robbers.

How seriously injured he is is unknown, police spokesman Dennis Johansson Strömberg tells SVT.

The police classify the crime as aggravated robbery and assault in court, because the robbers threatened the boy, and urged him not to contact the police.

No one is currently suspected or arrested, but the police are interested in tips and observations from Årby between 17 and 18 o'clock.

The alarm came in to the police at 17.21.
