Something exploded on Sunday night in the gate of an apartment building in Enskededalen in southern Stockholm. A young man suspected of being behind the explosion has been arrested.

There are no reports of personal injuries after the explosion, which was reported shortly after 3:45 am. Windows have been shattered in and around the gate.

The police immediately launched a large operation, including the use of helicopters and dog patrols. Less than two hours after the alarm, the police announced that a suspected perpetrator had been arrested.

The incident is being investigated as reckless endangerment.
