A 14-year-old boy admitted to placing and igniting thermos bombs in a Gothenburg residential area. The explosions caused damage to a building and injured the teenager himself.
The boy described his conversation with the person who ordered the attack. He said he asked whether anyone needed to die before carrying out the bombing.
Prosecutors have now filed an indictment in the case. The incident occurred in Hammarkullen, a suburb of Gothenburg known for its diverse population and occasional social challenges.
This case highlights ongoing concerns about youth involvement in serious crimes across Swedish cities. Authorities continue to address gang-related activities that sometimes recruit minors for dangerous operations.
Local residents expressed shock that someone so young would engage in such destructive behavior. Community leaders called for increased youth intervention programs to prevent similar incidents.
