A 15-year-old boy who is suspected of shooting his classmate at Trångsundsskolan south of Stockholm in September can be linked to the gang environment.
The boy is also suspected of preparing for murder in the days leading up to the shooting on September 4. It concerns a different incident than the shooting at the school, and can be linked to gang crime, according to prosecutor Kajsa Lindberg.
Yes, one can say that it is within a criminal context, she says.
The boy has been detained since the attempted murder at the school, but on Wednesday the detention was lifted. Instead, he will be placed in a Sis-home, says Lindberg.
I have assessed that social services have been able to offer other reliable security than detention.
The classmate who was shot at the school escaped without permanent injuries.
