A man has been charged with attempted murder following a violent incident at an LSS facility in Helsingborg, according to reports from Helsingborgs Dagblad. The incident occurred when a resident allegedly attempted to strangle a female employee, causing her to lose consciousness. The attack was reportedly interrupted by a colleague, but when police arrived at the scene, the woman had no pulse.
Emergency responders performed life-saving measures, after which she regained consciousness and was transported to a hospital. The accused man has undergone a preliminary psychiatric evaluation that indicates grounds to suspect serious mental disorder. He also reportedly has an intellectual disability.
Both Aftonbladet and Sydsvenskan have reported on the case, citing Helsingborgs Dagblad as their source.
