Passers-by have found a man lying on the ground bleeding with injuries to various parts of his body, allegedly from a machete attack, in Vasastaden, Sweden shortly after 7 am on Monday morning.
The victim, a famous convicted murder who recently left prison, was transported to a nearby hospital where his injuries were treated. According to the information provided by the medical service to the police, the man is not in life-threatening condition, Swedish broadcaster SVT reports.
According to SVT, the victim was previously convicted of murdering a young mother with whom he had previously had a relationship with.
“We are trying to create a picture of what has happened, it is only an hour old,” said Eva Nilsson, press spokesperson for the police.
The machete used to carry out the attack was reportedly left at the crime scene. Police have since cordoned off the crime scene and are currently talking to witnesses. Surveillance cameras nearby are also being checked, Nilsson told reporters.
A brief interview with the victim is also said to have occurred before he was taken to the hospital in the ambulance. Additional interrogations are planned.
So far, little is known about the attacker who’s only been described as a male who left the scene of the crime in a car.
Investigations are ongoing.
