An area in Kalmar was cordoned off on Thursday afternoon after an alarm about a suspected dangerous object.
It was a private individual who called in and thought that this object looked a bit strange. It was found among a lot of trash and may have been lying there for a longer period of time, says police spokesperson Sara Andersson.
On Friday morning, the police report that the suspected object was sharp and has been taken care of by the national bomb squad.
They have disassembled this object and neutralized it. What type of object it is, is not something we are communicating, says Andersson.
The cordons were lifted around 11 pm. A report of preparation for general destruction has been filed. No one is currently suspected.
We are working further as much as possible and we would of course like to get in touch with people who may have seen something.
