The police so far provide very scant information about what happened on their website:
"The police are investigating a serious violent crime in Västernorrland.
There is no danger to the public.
No other information will be given during the evening and night ".
More information about what happened has not been provided since 9 pm on Wednesday evening.
But it is clear that a large police operation took place in central Sollefteå during the evening.
According to P4 Västernorrland, a man has been subjected to very serious violence.
According to the same source, at least two people must be arrested.
Preliminary investigation into murder
According to information to SVT from police sources on Thursday morning, a preliminary investigation into the murder has begun.
The case is in the hands of prosecutors who are now leading the investigation.
