A man has died and a woman is in hospital after a shooting at a shopping center in Sweden, police say.
People at the Emporia shopping mall in the southern city of Malmo fled in panic after hearing around 20 shots being fired, Swedish outlet TV4 said.
Police have arrested a teenage boy and believe the shooting is related to migrant gang tensions.
It comes as Sweden gears up for a general election next month, where gang violence tops voters' concerns.
Sweden still has one of the highest rates of gun killings in Europe even though the country practices heavy-handed gun control.
This year shootings have also spread outside the country's main cities, as gang violence - which police say is often related to the shootings - spreads further afield.
Poor integration of immigrants, a widening gap between the rich and poor, and increasing drug use are what police say are the root causes of the violence.
