The arrest Wednesday followed the issuing of a warrant for the suspect’s arrest for attempted murder on Tuesday in Helsingborg in southern Sweden, the Helsinborgs Dagblad reported.
The victim, a woman in her 60s, sustained critical injuries and is in stable condition in hospital. The reports about the arrest did not offer additional information on the suspect.
The daily on Tuesday reported unattributed information that the incident “seems to be an act of insanity where the woman was randomly targeted.” But the same report also said that he is wanted for attempted murder – suggesting the assumption of criminal responsibility.
Israel’s president, Reuven Rivlin, meanwhile linked the assault to anti-Semitism when he wrote in a statement that it “reminds us that we cannot rely on fading memories of the Holocaust to keep today’s Jewish communities safe.”
Is his name Muhammad?
No one should worry about antisemitism, we have Bibi and Rivlin talking strong . . .
