Domestic. A woman in her 60s was stabbed to death at Ica Maxi in Norsborg on Tuesday evening in what is described as an unprovoked “act of madness”. A 25-year-old man was arrested on the spot by a security guard and has been arrested for murder.
The alarm was received by the police at 19.41 on Tuesday. The incident occurred inside the store, where the woman worked as an employee.
According to the police, there are no indications that the perpetrator and the victim knew each other. According to information to The evening paper the attack was unprovoked – the man is said to have simply walked up to the woman and stabbed her to death.
A knife and a car have been seized as evidence, and large parts of the sequence of events have been captured on the store’s surveillance cameras.
According to reports, the perpetrator is suspected of suffering from mental illness, but he is still being held in police custody and has not yet been taken to a medical facility.
The store’s owner has announced that Ica Maxi will likely be closed to support its staff. The incident has shaken the area, with many customers who were nearby at the time of the attack describing a feeling of worry and confusion.
The police are not looking for more suspects and are continuing the investigation to clarify the motive.
