<p>The shooting took place in the car park outside the mosque in the central city of Orebro in the early afternoon following Friday prayers, police said.</p>
<p>The victim was a 25-year-old man who was shot dead leaving the mosque, and the man injured was also in his 20s.</p>

<p>Many emergency services were at the scene, and police advised the public to stay away.</p>
<p>Roberto Eid Forest, head of the Orebro local police area, said at a press conference that at least one perpetrator was seen leaving the scene.</p>
<p>The police are now investigating murder, attempted murder and aggravated weapons offences, according to the Swedisn news agency TT, and said they suspect the crime is tied to local gangs.</p>
<p>For years, Sweden has grappled with gang violence, and criminal gangs often recruit teenagers in socially disadvantaged immigrant neighbourhoods to carry out hits.</p>
<p>Local TV news channel TV4 said there has been tension between two rival gangs in Orebro recently.</p>
