At a school in Lindesberg in Örebro, students were taken into custody for the second time in a month. On both occasions, it was a false alarm. We don't understand how it's possible. It's so frustrating, says head of administration Michael Tybell to Nerikes Allehanda.

It was at lunchtime on Tuesday that the school's evacuation alarm was activated, just a month after the last time.

"It's clear that it's causing concern, both among children and parents. We understand that, and several people have called," Michael Tybell told the newspaper.

Last time, the students were locked in for two hours and the police were on site with a major effort. Lindesberg Hospital also locked the doors and activated the medical management team in the emergency room.

This time, the school was able to quickly determine that the alarm had been activated by mistake by staff, which is also believed to have been the case last time. Despite this, the police were able to respond.

"We sent a patrol to the school, but it turned out to be a false alarm," police spokesperson Sophia Jiglind told TT.

Michael Tybell says he is taking the situation seriously.

There absolutely must not be any cry-wolf effect from this. If the alarm goes off, you should always take it as serious, until you get other information. You can't ignore that, he tells NA.
