Police spokesman Thomas Fuxborg says the national bomb squad and police investigated the object when it exploded.
– It can be said that it is something more powerful than a banger, he says.
A banger is a form of powerful firecracker, explains the spokesperson. At 2:00 p.m., the technical investigation continued at the scene of the alleged crime. The main obstacles that initially stopped tram traffic beyond the site have been claimed.
Framtidsgymnasiet, which is located in Andra Långgatan, abandoned its premises after the explosion.
The explosion is others in a short time in Första Långgatan. On the night of October 20, the police were alerted to the street after an entrance door was damaged by an explosion. The incident was later classified as vandalism.
Thomas Fuxborg says it is too early to say if there is any connection between the two explosions.
– We’re looking at it.
