At 10am, the emergency services believe the fire is extinguished but they still have units in place searching the area.

"You don't see any flames right now anyway," says Andreas Karlsson, who is the internal commander of the rescue service in Halmstad.

Two people must have been in the property when it started to burn. At the time of writing, the injury situation of the persons is unclear.

- They are still on the scene right now, so they have not traveled by ambulance yet, at least, says Andreas Karlsson.

It is unclear what caused the fire.
