The alarm was raised at 5 a.m. on Wednesday. The area has been cordoned off, and residents in the stairwell have been evacuated. The National Bomb Squad has also been called to the scene.
I don't want to go into what the object is at this point, but it is an object that does not belong in a stairwell, says Sara Fritz, press spokesperson for the Bergslagen police region, to Nerikes Allehanda.
The police have launched a preliminary investigation into attempted public destruction.
