Three people were shot and killed in Uppsala, Sweden, according to police. The shooting might be related to gang activity, as local media reported.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Swedish Police Authority said it began receiving multiple emergency calls around 5:04 p.m. local time on Monday reporting loud bangs believed to be gunfire. Officers responded to the scene and found several people with apparent gunshot wounds.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Police confirmed in an update<\/a> that three individuals had died. The identities of the victims have not yet been released. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

A large area was cordoned off and investigative efforts were launched, including door-to-door interviews and the deployment of police dogs and drones. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

According to Swedish broadcaster TV4<\/a>, the shooting took place at a hair salon. A witness told TV4 that he saw a masked man, dressed entirely in black, calmly walking across the street while holding a gun. The witness said the man fired multiple shots, then fled the scene on an electric scooter.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The witness said it took approximately 15 minutes for police to arrive after the emergency call was placed, although authorities have not confirmed the response time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Public broadcaster SVT<\/a> reported that one of the victims was involved in an ongoing investigation into a planned attack targeting a relative of a known gang leader.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In a statement issued at 9:59 p.m., authorities said they believe the attack was an isolated incident and that there is no ongoing threat to the public, including during upcoming Walpurgis Night celebrations in Uppsala.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The investigation is ongoing, and no arrests have been announced.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
