The attempted murder took place at a petrol station in central Sundsvall, when a man in his 30s was taken to hospital with serious injuries - but the situation was judged to be stable.

The man who is now suspected of the crime could be arrested by the police after an analysis and overall picture of the material in the case.

Arrest hearing in the afternoon

- He has been interrogated during the day and he has been requested to be detained.

In the afternoon, an arrest hearing awaits, says Jonas Holmström, crime inspector at the police department for serious crimes.

The man is a resident of Västernorrland and is already known to the police.
