Five shootings have occurred in Sweden since the weekend, with three resulting in deaths. This follows relatively few shootings earlier in the year. Several of the suspects are children aged 15 or younger.
On the previous day, a 15-year-old boy was killed in Malmö, and a young man was shot and injured on a bus in Tyresö outside Stockholm. Prime Minister Ulf Kristersson described the situation as completely terrible, stating that no civilized society can have it this way. He does not view the shootings as a political failure, saying that this will not be over until it is combated over a long time.
