The object is deemed to be completely harmless, but was built to imitate a bomb. Which P4 Kalmar was the first to report.
– We take this very seriously. It takes a lot of resources for us and also limits people’s freedom when we block off large areas, says Karl Ljungqvist to SVT.
Investigated as a false alarm
The police are investigating the incident as a false alarm and are keen to get tips from people who may have valuable information.
– In general, people do not need to be worried because of the events of the last few days. We investigate them individually and if we come to something different we will communicate it.
“Sees no connection”
Could the incident at Bragebron where the object was dangerous inspire others to do something like this?
– That can of course be the case. There are always individuals who are inspired. But so far it’s just speculation.
The police are also looking at connections between the three different incidents.
– So far, we do not see any connection, nor do we see that there would be a connection to network crime.
