There have been material damages, but I would not say that they are extensive damages, says the police's press spokesperson Katarina Rusin.

Both incidents are being investigated as reckless endangerment and crimes against the law on flammable and explosive goods, no one has been arrested.

The first alarm came at 2:40 at night to Friday from the Virentofta district, where several windows were smashed in a villa.

Early on Friday morning, the next alarm about a detonation, at an apartment building in Bunkeflostrand. It occurred in connection with an enclosed balcony. Window panes on several balconies were smashed, but no one was injured.

The police cannot yet say what has detonated.

We are looking closer at whether the incidents have any connection to each other, but it is far too early to say, says Katarina Rusin.
