The first alarm came at 20.40.

- There were a large number of callers who got in touch and told that shots were heard in the area.

We send a patrol there that quickly encounters a gunshot wounded person, says the police's spokesperson Evelina Olsson.

The police have cordoned off an area at the suspected crime scene next to Ängöleden.

Taken to hospital

It is currently unclear how seriously injured the man is.

But the police state that he was taken to hospital by ambulance.

- It's a younger man.

And there is no information about more injured, says Evelina Olsson to SVT Nyheter Småland.

No arrests

At 10 pm, the roadblocks were still in place.

- It will be like that for a while.

Our technicians are on their way and must be able to work, says Evelina Olsson.

No suspect is currently under arrest.
