In Stockholm, the police worked with several cases where young people fired rockets in a risky way.
Around 9.30 pm, several people in a residential area in Liljeholmen reacted to some young people firing fireworks at the courtyard.
When they pointed out that this was inappropriate, the young people responded by throwing glass bottles at them.
When the police arrived at the scene, a firecracker was thrown at the patrol's car, at the same time a youth gang was seen running towards a nearby park.
One of the young people then threw away a bag of firecrackers.
The police checked a number of the young people who fled the scene, those who are minors were driven home to their guardians.
Fireworks with fireworks also occurred in Sollentuna during the evening.
In connection with a patrol being on a case in the center of Sollentuna, a youth gang fired rockets at their car.
The young people wore mouth guards and dark clothes and ran in different directions after firing the firecrackers.
A report of blue light sabotage has been made in the case.
