Several police patrols are on site at a school in Rättvik after a call came in during Wednesday morning about a loud bang.

Ambulance and rescue services have left, and there are no signs that anything has happened, says Gabriel Henning, press spokesperson for the Bergslagen police region.

The alarm came in at 8.49 am. The school is located near another school, and according to the police, at least one of them was evacuated. The police announced shortly before 10 am that it was no longer necessary.

We are remaining on site to provide reassurance. There is, of course, some anxiety when you need to evacuate.
