Shortly before one o'clock during the night until Thursday, SOS was alerted to a fire in a multi-family house in Ulricehamn. A man had thrown an object on a balcony so it started to burn. The fire spread to the balcony below but residents of the house managed to extinguish the fire themselves.

Man arrested

A man in his 30s has now been arrested on suspicion of arson, says P4 Sjuhärad. An on-site technical examination will be conducted during the day. No person has been injured in the fire.
