One person has died in hospital after an apartment fire in Borås on the night of Tuesday, writes Göteborgs-Posten (GP).
The alarm about heavy smoke coming from the building came just before one o’clock and the police tell the newspaper that a person was taken out of the apartment.
The person was taken to hospital, but his life could not be saved. Relatives have been notified.
– It is unclear how the fire started, but we have started a preliminary investigation into gross public negligence, says Johan Josarp, the police officer on duty in the West, to GP.
