There is a fire in Ungdomens hus in central Uppsala.

It is unclear if anyone was injured in connection with the fire, which is said to have started in a skate ramp in the 19th-century house.
The fire is said to have started in a skateboard ramp and then spread. The emergency services have no information that anyone has been injured in connection with the fire.
– There is a risk of spreading to the wind at the moment, says Oscar Davila.
However, there is no spread to other buildings.
– The risk of spreading has only been in the building body in question, even if the house is attached to a long one, says Alexander Westerberg, commanding officer of the rescue service.
At 7:30 p.m., the emergency services were able to announce that they had succeeded in extinguishing the fire on the second floor.
– The fire has been extinguished now, but they are making sure that it has not spread to the wind, says Alexander Westerberg.
