Stockholm: Two women died after being "subjected to violence" at a secondary school in the southern Swedish city of Malmö, police said on Tuesday.
Both the women were in their 50s.
An 18-year-old man, who is a student at the school, has been arrested on suspicion of murder, officers told BBC.
Police said there were no reports of gunfire.
The two women, who worked at the school, were taken to hospital by ambulance but could not be saved, reports BBC.
Around 50 people, both students and teachers, were at the school when the incident took place, with police receiving reports of a "suspected serious crime" shortly after 17:00 (16:00 GMT) on Monday.
When they arrived, emergency services found two people injured at Malmö Latin School, a large secondary school in Sweden's third-largest city, police told BBC.
