Prosecutors have requested detention for a man and woman in their thirties suspected of murder and aiding murder. The suspects were previously arrested following Friday's shooting in Södertälje.
Police received the alert shortly after 9 PM for the Fornhöjden district. Officers discovered two shot men near a vehicle. An 18-year-old man died at the scene while another man sustained injuries.
Swedish authorities continue investigating the fatal shooting that occurred in this Stockholm suburb. Local media reports indicate the incident involved multiple suspects and serious violence.
Gun violence remains a persistent challenge in Swedish urban areas despite government efforts to combat organized crime. This latest incident adds to concerns about public safety in suburban communities around major cities.
The detention hearing will determine if the suspects remain in custody during the ongoing investigation. Swedish law permits extended pre-trial detention for serious crimes like murder.
