The 40-year-old who was shot is charged with robbery and serious threat to an official

It was on July 6 this year that the drama unfolded on the pedestrian street in Hudiksvall when two policemen were about to arrest the man who had been around several shops and forced goods at knifepoint.

For the attack on the police officers, he is charged with aggravated unlawful threats against an official.

Denies crime

The 40-year-old is also charged with robbery.

He went into a shop and stole a mobile phone.

When a store employee tried to take the phone back, the 40-year-old pointed the knife at the employee.

He is also charged with gross illegal threats and illegal threats against other store employees in various stores where he has been inside and threatened to take goods for small sums.

The small sums mean that he is prosecuted in three cases for petty theft.

The man has denied crime, except for one of the petty thefts.
