It was on Tuesday evening that one person died and another person was injured after several people were attacked with a knife in Uddevalla.

According to Richard Fredmark, it will be about up to five different incidents that the police are now investigating.

One person has been arrested, suspected of murder and two more have been taken in for questioning.

- We see that there is a connection between these events, says Richard Fremark.

He emphasizes that there is no reason for residents in Uddevalla to worry.

- We have tried to make it clear that we see this as an isolated event and that there is no danger for the public to stay in Uddevalla, he says.

Denies information obtained

During the day, there has also been information that the attacks were about two gangs that collided.

This is information that Richard Fredmark denies.

- We do not see that right now.

There have also been rumors that racist motives were behind the attacks.

We do not see that either, he says and continues:

- What we are working on now is continued investigative work and we are also on site in Uddevalla for security-creating work.
