The perpetrator was right-handed and put the weapon inside his coat on the left side. When the weapon was placed inside his coat, the perpetrator stood with his back to Ann-Charlott.
After the shooting, the man turned to the right and put the weapon inside his coat and ran away from the scene. Ann-Charlott did not notice whether the man had any bag or similar object with him where the weapon could have been kept.
According to the perpetrator's movements, he must have placed the weapon inside his coat on the left side.
Ann-Charlott cannot remember whether there were other people in the immediate vicinity of the incident. Immediately after the shot and after the perpetrator had run away, people arrived at the scene. Two girls were among the first. Their age is estimated to be between 20 and 25 years. The girls ran towards the victim.
Ann-Charlott and her friends simultaneously asked to pay the fare and get out of the taxi. Her attention was no longer directed towards the place where the shot was fired.
Ann-Charlott and the group left the scene in the direction of Monte Carlo.
In addition to Ann-Charlott, her friends Charlotte Liljedal and Lena Schödin were also travelling in the taxi. Resident Blåsklöverbacken 39, 162 43 Vällingby, telephone 08-36 28 90 or to the home 08-89 17 19.
Lena could not come with her to the police interview because she was ill.
Ann-Charlott's companions had the following arrangement in the taxi.
Lena sat in the front seat immediately next to the taxi driver. Charlotte sat immediately behind Lena. The person who had the best view of the crime scene was therefore Ann-Charlott and the taxi driver because they were sitting at the far end and closest to the incident.
