- We have taken height for the weekend and have extra staff inside the stations in Falun, Borlänge and Ludvika under Valborg, partly for the fires but also because it is so dry, says Thomas Fahlstedt who is duty officer at the Rescue Service Dala Mitt.

Advises against firing

70 may fires have so far been reported to Dala Mitt. 

- We advise against firing but take reports so that we know who is responsible.

For those who fire, it is important to be aware that you are the one who is responsible if something happens.

The rescue service in northern Dalarna is also currently advising against firing.
