Swedish rapper Gaboro has reportedly been shot dead according to local media reports.
On Friday police confirmed a man had been shot and killed in a multi-storey car park in the city of Norrköping, south-west of Stockholm
Soon after a video that appeared to show the hip hop star being killed started spreading online.
In the footage, which appears to have been filmed with a camera worn by the shooter, a person carrying a handgun is seen firing multiple shots in a car park.
Swedish police have said they are aware of the video and that it has now become part of their investigation.
Officers had previously said that a man in his 20s had been found injured at the scene on Thursday before being pronounced dead after being rushed to hospital.

Multiple local media outlets have reported the man killed was Gaboro, who has become knowing for hiding his identity by wearing a black ski mask and sunglasses.
The BBC has reported that his real name is Ninos Khouri.
He first came to prominence in 2022 with the release of his song Browski, which has more than 1.6 million views on YouTube.
In the two years since, Gaboro has drawn in more than 226,000 listeners to his songs on Spotify each month.

Fans have paid tribute by laying flowers at the scene of the shooting, while local musicians have posted about the rapper.
Swedish DJ Alan Max shared a photo of himself with Khouri on social media, writing ‘have no words’, while rapper Imenella wrote: ‘Rest in peace’.
Police have appealed to witnesses for information, asking members of the public to contact them if they saw a silver station wagon ‘that may be relevant to the case’.

They added that officers were also working ‘very intensively’ on the case.
Earlier this year another Swedish rapper was shot dead.
C.Gambino – real name Karar Ramadan – was killed in June not long after being named hip-hop artist of the year at the country’s Grammy awards.
In 2021, award-winning rapper Einar was also killed in a gang shooting.
