Several investigations after ammunition explosion

A repair work was to be carried out when the accident occurred, according to the report to AV. The authority must investigate exactly what led up to the explosion. The company itself will carry out an investigation that AV will be allowed to take part in, and the police’s technicians will also be involved in the investigation.

The Swedish Agency for Community Safety and Preparedness (MSB) will also visit the factory. Depending on what the Swedish Work Environment Authority comes up with, MSB’s unit for handling explosive goods may review the ammunition manufacturer’s permit, reports the radio.

The person injured in the explosion is still being treated in hospital. The state of health is described as stable, according to P4 Skaraborg.
