Sweden: A 12-year-old boy has been taken into police custody accused of attempting to rape a 19-year-old. The boy was interviewed in the presence of his parents and social services but it is yet to be determined what action will be taken.
The boy reportedly began sexually harassing the woman on a bus. He got off the stop after her, walked back, punched her in the face, pulled her pants down, and tried to rape her. A nearby family heard the commotion and intervened.
The victim of the attack was kept in hospital overnight with relatively serious injuries. A 13-year-old from the same area is also in police custody suspected of three other recent attacks.
