Gangland shootings and bombings that have plagued Sweden's biggest cities have spread to quieter suburbs and towns
A 12-year-old child assassin has been arrested for allegedly shooting the wrong person in a botched £20,000 hit job.
The boy is accused of murdering a 21-year-old man in a drive-by shooting in Malmö, Sweden, last Friday.
Local media reports the child shot the wrong target and was supposed to hit someone else in the vehicle.
Police believe the victim was shot while travelling in an Audi with his friends travelling along Galgebacksvägen in the Oxie area at around 10.30pm when the gun horror happened.
The fellow passengers then drove into the city centre and dumped the car on a residential street in Hindby, it is reported. They then contacted another person, who alerted cops to the shooting.
Police officers found the victim in the back seat of a car in Hindby. He was rushed to hospital, where he was pronounced dead shortly after.
Following a murder probe, police identified a 12-year-old boy as their prime suspect and took him into custody on Tuesday, according to Sydsvenskan.
The boy, who is not from Malmö, is said to have travelled to the city to carry out the attack, the newspaper reports. He was allegedly given several assassination assignments, with the killing carrying a payment of 250,000 SEK (£20,000), according to Expressen.
Since he is below the age of legal responsibility, the suspect has been taken into care and given legal counsel, court documents show. In Sweden, children under the age of 15 cannot be jailed.
The horror shooting is one of many paid assignments the child assassin, from central Sweden, has allegedly received.
He is the youngest person to be suspected of committing a fatal shooting in Sweden, local media reports.

Never send a boy out to do a man’s job.
That could explain why "Swedish" assassins are under the age of 15.
Sweden was named the 4th happiest country in the world in 2025. Is there trouble in paradise?
He killed the wrong guy, so no crime.
I guess the only recourse for the victims family is to hire an 11 year old assassin to take this 12 year old out.
Huh. I must've missed this rather significant alteration in the peaceful passive world of Swedish peaceful coexistence.
Yes, It's Them Again, ABBA!
In this case, if you hired this kiddie assassin, you probably aren’t too happy.
“Little bastard shot me in the ass!”
Sweden.
How many of us could look ahead to these times, and think yeah, one day I’ll be reading about savage gangs and hit men and pre-teen assassins running amok in Sweden and it’ll even be the “new normal”?
But hey it’s like what Johnny said,
“He killed the wrong guy, so no crime.”
Obviously Norwegian.................
“Obviously Norwegian.................
well duh, just like the ones that shot A$AP Rockys atty after Rocky was harassed by some Finns
“The boy, who is not from Malmö”

Give him a few years and a do-over.
The bernie sanders sososocilist paradise, has now become the land of child assassins, gangland shootings, hand grenade attacks. They will need to address that soon, because soon there will be no later.....
“Gangland shootings and bombings ...”
Is this a nice way of saying “Muslim.”
