Four 15-year-old boys were injured in a knife fight near a school in Eskilstuna on Thursday. The youths were taken to hospital and the scene cordoned off.
When the police lifted the cordons, sweeper Johan Miedl-Ohlsson was one of the first on the scene:
"I was assigned to go and clean up the blood after this violence.
"Shouldn't have to happen to children walking with knives"
On the radio, he was told that there was a large altercation with several injured, and that some type of weapon had been used.
"It's never fun, because it's young people who are doing it. I myself have a daughter who will be 17 soon.
Another Eskilstuna resident was Omid, who also has a daughter in her teens.
"I think it's very uncomfortable. It shouldn't have to happen, especially at this age, for children to walk with knives," he says.
