The police have been alerted to two suspicious shootings in Eskilstuna, which are said to have occurred within the space of a few minutes.

The first alarm concerned a shooting in Nyfors.

No one was injured at the scene, the police said.

Just a few minutes later, the police were alerted to a suspicious shooting at a playground in Årby.

A suspected crime scene is cordoned off, but no one injured was found there either.

Found sleeves

- We don't know what happened, but we have had many callers stating that they heard gunfire.

And we have patrols on site that have confirmed this as well.

We are working on it on site right now so it is difficult to give details at the moment.

Sleeves must have been found, but I can't say how many, says Johan Häggh at the police, about the alarm in Årby.
