The media identified the victim as musician Gaboro, who allegedly had connections to criminal organizations, after Swedish police said Friday that a man had been shot dead in a parking garage in Norrkoping.
Soon after, a video that claimed to show the murder went viral on social media. A handgun-wielding individual can be seen shooting several bullets in a car garage in the video, which seems to have been captured by the shooter’s camera.
The police claimed to be aware of the video and to have included it in their investigation.
According to them, a man in his twenties was discovered hurt at the scene on Thursday morning and was later declared dead at the hospital.
A statement from the police stated that they were seeking information on a silver station wagon that might be connected to the crime.
According to a statement, the case, which is categorized as murder, is still being worked on by the police with great intensity.
According to numerous media accounts, the man was rapper Gaboro, whose songs have been listened to millions of times on Spotify, a Swedish music streaming service.
As rival gangs settle scores and police attempt to control the illegal drug trade, gang shootings and bombings have escalated in Sweden.
The violence has previously targeted a number of well-known artists.
Rapper C. Gambino, whose true name was Karar Ramadan and who is not to be mistaken with American musician Childish Gambino, was shot and killed in June. The month before, he had been chosen as the nation’s hip-hop artist of the year.
In October 2021, award-winning Swedish rapper Einar was shot and killed in a gang fight in Stockholm.
With fewer shootings and shooting deaths, police told Reuters last week that they were making headway in their fight to curb deadly gang violence.
Johan Olsson, head of the Police National Operations Department, told Reuters that this is the first time the trend has been obviously decreasing for a long time.
53 people were killed in 363 shootings last year, many of which took place in public and killed innocent spectators and victims.
