Swedish rapper Gaboro was reportedly shot and killed on Thursday, December 19, in a parking lot in Norrkoping, according to Swedish newspaper Aftonbladet.
A graphic video allegedly capturing the incident has gone viral on social media, igniting outrage. The 19-second clip, filmed from a first-person perspective, shows a man approaching another near a white SUV with a gun. The assailant fires multiple shots as the victim collapses, pleading, âI beg youâ in Swedish. Additional shots are fired, leaving the victim lifeless.
Authorities have not confirmed the videoâs authenticity or its connection to Gaboroâs death. Police responded to the scene at 8:27 p.m., finding a man in his 20s with multiple gunshot wounds. He was rushed to the hospital but succumbed to his injuries.
While police have not officially identified the victim, they confirmed he was known to law enforcement. Mats Pettersson, a police spokesperson, stated, âIt is a man in his 20s. We know who he is and have a good knowledge of him from before.â
Gaboro, a rising figure in Swedenâs music industry, reportedly had ties to criminal networks. His death highlights the ongoing surge in gang-related violence that has increasingly targeted Swedish artists.
Investigations into the murder are ongoing as authorities address growing concerns over violent crime linked to gang conflicts in Sweden.
