A heartbreaking incident has struck the youth hockey community in Europe, where a 15-year-old player went missing last week. Identified only as Henrik, he had been a part of the Swedish league's Frolunda youth hockey team before his disappearance.

In response to the distressing situation, Frolunda HC issued an official statement, expressing their deep concern. The statement highlighted the significance of hockey in Henrik's life and emphasized their commitment to supporting his family and teammates during this challenging time. They have also enlisted professional assistance to provide the necessary support to all affected parties.
"The news on Sunday evening has shaken the association considerably, not least considering how important ice hockey was for Henrik. In this difficult moment of grief and loss, Frölunda HC has focused on supporting Henrik's family and teammates. The association has sought professional help to ensure that everyone gets the assistance and support they need." - Frolunda HC

After a week of uncertainty, Henrik was located, but the circumstances took a grim turn. Multiple minors have been apprehended in connection with his disappearance, and the authorities are now treating the case as a homicide. While two individuals have been released, a 16-year-old boy remains in custody on suspicion of murder.
Prosecutor Andreas Ekengren provided insight into the ongoing investigation, revealing that the 16-year-old suspect acknowledged meeting Henrik on the night he disappeared but denies any involvement in a crime. The police are actively working to determine the motive behind this tragic incident.
"The 16-year-old has admitted that he met Henrik on the same night he disappeared but denies having exposed him to a crime. The boys were familiar with each other from before, and the police are trying to find a motive for the murder." - Prosecutor Andreas Ekengren

Our heartfelt condolences and thoughts go out to Henrik's family and the entire Frolunda hockey team during this incredibly difficult time.
