Three people have died and three are injured in a shooting in the Swedish city of Malmo.

Two of the men, aged 18 and 29, died overnight after being shot as they left an internet cafe.

Another man, in his 30s, has also died, hospital authorities reported.

Police have said the motive for the shooting is probably criminal and there is no indication it was terror-related.

They urged that there was no cause for public alarm.

Witnesses told local media that they heard 15 to 20 shots at around 6.15pm in the centre of the city.

All six people who were shot were taken to hospital and police have questioned witnesses after sealing off the area.
