The fire in the apartment building broke out at 1 pm on Monday and VMA – important message to the public – was issued in stages.
It is still unclear how the fire started.
We are investigating the circumstances to find out what caused the fire, says the police's press spokesperson Filip Annas.
Do you suspect any crime?
We will get back to that question. It's something we're investigating.
The first warning to the public was issued at 2 pm but was later withdrawn, when the danger was said to be over, according to the website Krisinformation.
At 7 pm, everyone in the area was again urged to go indoors and close doors, windows and ventilation. Just before 11 pm, the warning was withdrawn for the second time.
However, the fire is said not to be under control.
We are removing the roof and extinguishing the fire that is in the attic, but we are not finished yet for many hours, says Michael Hesselgård at the rescue service.
Around eight to ten apartments in the house have been fire-damaged. All residents have been evacuated.
