The trial of a boy suspected of shooting six people in October last year began in Gävle, Sweden, this morning. The boy was only 13 years old at the time of the shooting. The case has attracted much attention in Sweden, not only because of the boy's young age but also because of the suspicion that a senior figure within the notorious Foxtrot crime ring may have recruited him to the crime.
