The fire in the industrial building on Orust that risked spreading has been extinguished.

It's fairly good order overall, says Helen Wickberg, team leader at SOS Alarm, to TT.

The rescue service was alerted at 4 pm on Monday afternoon and is still on site with seven units.

They continue to search for structural fires in the attic so they don't miss anything, says Wickberg.

According to the person who reported the alarm, a gas pipe with acetylene caught fire on the first floor of the building. Several gas cylinders were found during the operation.

The rescue service's work is expected to continue until 8:30 pm. No one has been found injured.
