A party in Tensta, northwest Stockholm, spiraled out of control late Saturday night, prompting a major police response.
The event, held in a venue rented from the Syrian Orthodox Church, hosted 700 attendees—300 more than the legal capacity.
Security guards, overwhelmed by the crowd, called the police for assistance.
Upon arrival, officers encountered an aggressive atmosphere fueled by heavy intoxication.
The party was shut down, but tensions flared as attendees resisted leaving, leading to hours of negotiations in the cold.
Several individuals were detained for intoxication, and multiple assault reports were filed.
The incident highlights ongoing challenges in managing large gatherings safely.
