Twelve to hospital after fire

Twelve people have been taken to hospital after a fire in an apartment building in Bredäng in southern Stockholm. About 40 people had to evacuate.

The fire is believed to have started in an apartment on the fourth floor and the alarm about it came in at 01.30 on the night of Sunday.

The police have initially classified the whole thing as suspicion of public negligence.

The fire was judged to be under control at three o’clock. But a big effort has worked on site.
