“It is suspected that these men are important witnesses but there are no arrests,”  Gavleborg police spokesman Michael Hedström told Swedish news agency, TT.

“We must also question a man who was injured in the altercation,” Hedström continued.

“We have 20 officers working on the case - there is a huge amount of work to get through to establish what exactly happened.”

Söderhamn is a town of around 11,000 in Gävleborg municipality, 250km north of Stockholm.
