STOCKHOLM, Aug. 15(Greenpost) —  Criminal gangs were suspected to be behind the moped arson in Gothenburg’s region in west coast area of Sweden,  according to the report from Swedish Dagens Nyheter or Daily News.

Two young suspects  have been arrested. They are 16 years old and 21 years old respectively.

The police said they thought the arson was against the police campaign in the area during the summer to have arrested a few people.  It was suspected as a revenge for the police  action.  Although it was not directly and closely connected,  people still couldnt help thinking of the Husby arson in 2013 in suburbs of Stockholm.

Another thought was that it was also a pattern from the previous years that gangsters set fire on cars or assault schools just before the new semester of the schools.

But witness said that it happened so quickly that at 9 o’clock in the evening, suddenly a few dark masked people with dark clothes came and poured gasoline into the cars and ignited the cars. Suddenly the cars were burned with fires shooting into the sky.

Police found that about 20 places saw this kind of incidents where cars were burned and the person who did it had run away.

A total of 80 cars were burned down and about 20 were damaged. Those damaged can get compensation from insurance if the owner can identify their car.

Prime Minister Stephan Löfvin and Moderate leader Ulf Kristersson have been to Frolunda.

Lofvin vows to strengthen punishment regulations and consolidate the police force.   The punishment for murder violence can be as high as six years imprisonment.

Police said the crime is similar to previous years violence which happened before new semester started.

The gangsters set fire and ran away with moped quickly.  Police said they actually detained a few more for questioning.

The main areas which suffered are Frolunda and Hjallbo, Tynnered. In the Trollhattan where cars are produced also found a suspect.

The police suspected that this was an organized crime, coordinated by a group of people which at least included 20 people.

Meanwhile，various parties used facebook to send out messages and paid the social media to do the communication job.
