A multi-family house on Hisingen in Gothenburg was subjected to an explosion on Tuesday evening.

We received an alarm about blasts at 23.03 and it turned out to be something that detonated at a door to a multi-family house, says Per Gottschalk, duty officer at Police Region West.

No personal injuries have been reported and by 00.30, no one had been arrested for the deed.

We do not know exactly what damage the detonation has caused, but initially, there are no major extensive damages. We have initiated an investigation into general endangerment, says Per Gottschalk.

A technical investigation will be carried out during the night.

The area will be cordoned off and we are working together with the bomb squad and the rescue service, says Per Gottschalk.
