Two children, one in preschool age and one in primary school age, were shot.
The injuries are not said to be life-threatening, but according to the police spokesperson, the children were probably out playing.
They do not seem to have the target.
- It is an indescribable darkness.
It is difficult to take in, but we see that new borders are constantly being crossed in Sweden around this serious crime, says Johan Forssell (M).
He continues:
- Of course, one thinks of the relatives today, but I also think that completely different measures are needed in the future in Sweden to deal with this, unfortunately not only gross, but also growing gang crime.
