At 10 o’clock an alarm came to the police about a suspected dangerous object. A person had found the object at Flintbacken on Södermalm. According to information to TV4 Nyheterna, it is a suspected hand grenade.
– It is a type of package that you cannot immediately find out what it contains. We want to know what it is, so we set up a proper cordon, says Carina Skagerlind, press spokesperson for the Stockholm region police.
The National Bomb Squad has come to the scene to look at the object. Residents in the area have been informed why the police are there, but they are not being asked to evacuate.
