Shortly after 5 o'clock in the morning, several people alerted the police after hearing a very loud bang in a residential area in Ödåkra, which is adjacent to the Väla shopping center.

On Monday, police blocked off a large area around the garage where the explosion occurred, on Merkuriusgatan in Ödåkra.

- We want to be sure that there were no further explosive charges that could detonate, says Police Chief Sven Holgersson.

"Not a banger"

A car was blown out in the explosion, and several other vehicles as well as real estate sustained damage, according to police. The fully blown car was taken away with a tow truck at 11am on Monday.

The bombers, who were investigating the site, cannot yet say what kind of explosives it is about.

- But at least it is not an ordinary banger, these were more powerful things, says Sven Holgersson.

Unclear about threat image

It is also unclear if there was a threat to the car owner or anyone else living in the area.

- This is something we will look at in the investigation, says Sven Holgersson.

Police are now knocking on doors in the area and are looking for witnesses.
