The object we have investigated is now safe, said Anders Dahlman, press spokesperson at Örebro police, to P4 Örebro on Sunday afternoon.

The national bomb squad finished their work at the site at 5 pm.

Exactly what kind of object it is, the police "won't go out with right now", but refers to the police investigation. A preliminary investigation into serious crime against the law on flammable and explosive goods and preparation for general destruction was initiated already at lunchtime.

It was just before 9 am on Sunday morning that the police were alerted.

A police officer on duty contacted the command center regarding an object that deviates from the normal picture, said Anders Dahlman to TT during the morning.

The national bomb squad was called in, and the police cordoned off the area and established a safety distance. Bus traffic was affected for a while. There are several sports fields and a residential area near the site.
