Something has detonated at a residential building in central Nyköping on the night of Thursday, which Aftonbladet was the first to report on.

– Alarms were received from several residents in the area who heard a loud bang and we manage to locate it to a property where something exploded, unclear what, says Lennart Ahlin, officer on duty at the police.

– There were no injuries, but the property’s gate was damaged.

The scene has been cordoned off pending a technical investigation and police are collecting witness statements and checking surveillance cameras in the area. No one has been arrested in the case.
