The operation is still ongoing on Saturday morning.
We still have the barricades in place and are still on site. We are investigating the incident as general reckless endangerment, alternatively arson, says August Brandt, press spokesperson for police region West.
Our technicians have not been able to examine the site yet. The problem with this type of incident is that it gets very hot and then it has to cool down before our technicians can examine the site in a safe way.
The rescue service managed to get one person out of the apartment, but it is unclear if anyone is missing.
The person was taken to hospital with unclear injuries. Right now, it is unclear if there was anyone else in the residence, says Magnus Schildt, duty officer at police region West.
The alarm about the fire came in at 04.35 and when the rescue service arrived at the scene, the fire was fully developed. No person is suspected of a crime.
