An explosion occurred during the night to Monday in an apartment building in Örebro.

We received many calls about a loud bang, the first one at 00.19, that something exploded by an entrance in Mellringe. No reports of injured people but there are some material damages, says Sophia Jiglind, press spokesperson at police region Bergslagen.

At 04 o'clock, no one had been arrested in the case.

We have the national bomb squad on site now and when they are finished, our technicians will come in and do a crime scene investigation. We have done a number of door knocks and we will see where we end up when we have done some information gathering, says Mathias Henricsson, duty officer at Police region Bergslagen.
