The wave of violence in Stockholm continues.
Just over a month later, attacks are now taking place against former perpetrators in the spiral of serious violent crimes.
The night’s explosion in Uppland’s Väsby is said to be aimed at a young man who is in custody for an explosion in Kista on January 18, according to Aftonbladet’s information.
At 03.59, on the night of Sunday, a bomb exploded at an apartment building in Upplands Väsby. The case is classified as public destruction and Dan, 65, who lives in the house, told us this morning about the detonation:
– I smelled strong smoke and saw that the windows were broken, even on the third floor where I live, he says.
According to Aftonbladet’s information, the explosion was aimed at a man aged 25. The target is, however, deprived of his liberty and has been in custody for some time.
