A second man has been arrested over a sword attack at a school in central Sweden that left a 17-year-old girl dead and three other students wounded, prosecutors said on Wednesday.
The man is suspected of assisting murder and attempted murder over the attack at Brinell School in Fagersta, northwest of Stockholm, on August 21.
Prosecutors have not disclosed his age or said how he is suspected of being involved. They are expected to decide by noon on Thursday whether to ask a court to detain him or release him.
