The first alarm came at 23.22. It was a large waste bin that burned with open flames near a multi-family house on Allégatan, where residents had started extinguishing before the Rescue Service arrived.

Neighbors felt the smell of smoke

- There were a couple who had the window open and who early felt the smoke smell, one called 112 and the other ran down with a fire extinguisher so when we arrived there were no longer open flames, says Johan Wickenberg, who was internal commander at the Rescue Service Jämtland during night.

Burned outside restaurant

The next alarm came at 04.38, even then it was a large garbage can that was burning, now at the brick floor.

- It burned heavily and a window to a restaurant was cracked by the heat, says Johan Wickenberg.

He also says there are signs that both fires were on fire.
