Several police officers went to an address in Eksjö just before five in the evening.
According to the police, a man was threatened by a perpetrator known to him with a bow.
The man, who is in his 70s, could then be arrested by the police in connection with his home.
- It was a cut person who called us.
Thankfully, no one was injured, says police spokesman Johnny Gustavsson.
Large police force
Less than two weeks ago, five people were killed in Norway with a bow.
With that in mind, several police patrols were called and some were even equipped with reinforcement weapons.
- It is clear that those thoughts were aroused in us when we received the alarm, says Johnny Gustavsson.
According to the police, it was a fully functioning weapon that he threatened with.
The man is now suspected of grossly illegal threats.
