The first assessment is that it was a powerful explosive device that could have caused major damage if it had exploded, says Johan Borg, who is operational coordinator in the local police district Värnamo, to SVT Nyheter Jönköping.
According to the police, the explosive device is believed to be connected to a larger brawl in the area on Friday.
Yes, we see a clear connection, there are four people detained suspected of assault since Friday. We believe that this is gang-related and we will increase our presence on the spot, says Johan Borg.
The incident is classified as attempted public destruction, a crime against the law on flammable and explosive goods as well as aggravated threats.
