The 16-year-old has been involved in a number of criminal cases, and earlier this year was convicted in a drug case. He is said to have been missing from an institution since Thursday, reports SVT.

Now there are police everywhere here, a resident in the area tells Aftonbladet. The police are investigating whether the shooting is connected to the wave of violence in the country. – We are treating it as part of the gross violence we have seen, although it is too early to establish it for sure, says police spokesperson Daniel Wikdahl. Swedish media: Link to gang According to information to SVT, the attack was aimed at family members of people with links to the gang conflict. A well-known Swedish artist lives at the address where the shooting took place, several Swedish media reports.
