STOCKHOLM - Swedish police officers shot and wounded a man who was banging a bag on the ground and claiming to have a bomb at a train station in the city of Malmo, authorities and a witness said Monday. Police evacuated the station, and a bomb squad searched it but found nothing dangerous, police spokeswoman Evelina Olsson said. It looks like it was nothing serious,” Olsson told The Associated Press, saying police would have more details later. Police were alerted just after 10 a.m. that a man was behaving in a menacing way at Malmo’s central station. Officers shot the man in both legs and he remains hospitalized, but has so far been unwilling to explain his actions to police, Olsson said.
