Following the homicide on Sunday in Wohlen AG, the alleged perpetrator is in the custody of the authorities. The public prosecutor's office opened a criminal investigation against the 40-year-old Swiss national for intentional homicide.
The man is an inpatient in the forensic psychiatric ward in Königsfelden, as Adrian Schuler, media spokesman for the chief public prosecutor's office in Aargau, told the Keystone-SDA news agency on Monday.
The seven-year-old girl who was shot in the homicide on Sunday is not in mortal danger. At present, there is little new information on the background to the homicide.
A 39-year-old Polish man was shot dead with a pistol in an apartment building on Sunday morning. The cantonal police found the victim dead in the stairwell. The suspected perpetrator lived in the same apartment building. The police arrested the Swiss national at the scene.
