Note how the news show above conflates all "hate crimes", shootings, stabbings, explosions, hand grenades, etc., all into one.
Translated from Den Korte Avis:
Jacob Ekström is policeman. He is tired of keeping silent about the terrible knowledge he has on the development in Sweden. Large residential areas is developing into enclaves where the authorities are sidelined. These areas are controlled by large family clans, who have formed gangs committing extensive crime.
On Monday night there were gunfights between several gangs in the immigrant ghetto Rosengård in Malmö. 25 were arrested.
“We are losing grip. The last bank moved away from that area after a rocket was shot into the room. The pharmacy was robbed so many times that it eventually closed. The insurance company has moved. There are thrown stones at the police, ambulances and firemen several times a month. It is not even a novelty.”
So says Jacob Ekström on the suburbs of Stockholm, where he is police commander. “It’s no-go-areas”, he says about the areas where a police car who are alone, does not stand a chance. Last summer triedthe National Police spoke out.
They wrote in a report that there are 55 such areas in 22 cities in Sweden. In these areas there is serious violence, crime, extortion gangs, attacks on police, firemen and journalists. … But ghettos continued.
“It’s sensational that there are areas in Sweden where Swedish law no longer exists,”says researcher Lars Korsell in an article. He says that the gangs emerged in the early or mid-1990s. They were typically formed by immigrants from the former Yugoslavia, Iran, Iraq or Lebanon.

"It was not clear what sparked the slaughter, which happened around 1 p.m. local time. But the suspected stabber was captured immediately after the attack and was described by VLT as “known to the police from before.
Police did not release his name.
The victims were reportedly a 25-year-old man and a woman, both of them regular customers at the store.
The survivor was a 35-year-old man and he was being treated for knife wounds at Vasteras Central Hospital, officials said.
“He has come in from the accident site badly damaged and has life-threatening injuries,” nurse Lena Moren told Swedish media. “The man is in emergency surgery right now.”
IKEA flack Daniela Rogosic said they were still in the dark about what happened.
“We don’t have the complete picture yet, but what we know right now is that none of our staff are among the injured,” she said. “For now we're focusing on our staff members and customers and are directing all questions to the police, who are investigating at the scene.”
Vasteras is about 60 miles west of Stockholm.”

FWIW...a comment at UKDailyMail -
"the southern parts of Stockholm (Botkyrka and Bargamossen), Goteborg (Biskipsgaarden) and Malmo (Risengaard) have problems. In fact the Municipality of Malmo has officially taken away the name of "Rosengaard". It is now included in "Malmo South". BUT, this was in Västerås! Which, on the other hand is known for 2 rival motorcycle gangs."
ArutzSheva: Two Killed in Knife Attack in Swedish IKEA "All of the victims were known to each other and had been shopping together."
ChannelNewsAsia adds
"Several hours after the attack, in which a third shopper was seriously injured, police had yet to release any details about the suspected attacker's identity or motive.
There was no indication the attack was terrorism-related. Swedish intelligence agency Sapo told AFP it had not been called in on the case. The suspect was not known to police and did not have a criminal record, a police spokesman for the Vastmanland region, Per Stromback, told the regional VLT paper."
A shaky video clip filmed by a passerby that was published on VLT's website showed police arresting the suspect at a bus stop outside Ikea.
"I saw police come running toward a man standing and waiting at the bus stop. The arrest happened really fast, the man didn't put up a fight but he was loud. He was maybe 30 or 40 years old," Fredrik Pikkuaho, who filmed the clip, told VLT.
Police can be see pushing the man to the ground but the suspect's face cannot be seen clearly.

"Fredrik Pikkuaho had just come out of the Ikea house when the guards arrived and the staff turned off the store.
- I saw the cops come running towards a man who was waiting in a bus shelter. The arrest went really fast, the man did not resist, but was loud. He is perhaps 30-40 years."
"There was no indication the attack was terrorism-related."
If it was Muslim related isn't that enough?

TheLocal.se: Malmo shaken by another hand grenade attack Aug. 10
The hand grenade exploded on a residential street near one of Malmö's busiest bus stations in the Möllevången area of the southern city late on Sunday night.
No one was injured in the blast, which took place at 11pm at a street crossing between Ahlmansgatan and Claesgatan, although some 30 windows were shattered.
Malmö has been hit by more than 30 explosions since the start of the year. At one point in July four grenade attacks were reported in under a week. Last year, a total of 25 blasts took place in the city over the whole of 2014.
Many of the hand grenades are believed to come from former conflict zones in the Balkans. Police have previously linked some of the unrest to an increased import of illegal weapons and recently called for tougher border controls on the Öresund bridge between Sweden and Denmark in a bid to tackle the problem.
Earlier in the summer they also revealed that they were stepping up their presence in known trouble-hit areas such as Rosengård and Seved, where they announced around 30 people believed to be from criminal backgrounds were being tracked by officers.
Last month, concerns were raised that police staff shortages in the city were putting the public at risk, as around a third of the 705-strong Malmö force were on holiday.
Aftonbladet.se posted same video of arrest/better audio Difficult audio, but clearly there is yelling in the background. Allah akbar??? not clear enough - check it out.
