The fire is raging in the attic of the house, which has been evacuated on everyone who lives there.
The rescue service is now on site with twelve units to fight the fire.
- I think it must have started to burn in an apartment and gone up in the attic.
The entire attic is overheated, says Ola Jakobsson, officer on duty.
Great effort
Police and ambulances have also been alerted to the fire and the property has been evacuated.
- There are three ambulances that are on site, but I also see that more resources are being sent to the site right now, says Lucas Hettman, team leader at SOS Alarm.
VMA issued
A VMA, an important announcement to the public, has been issued and everyone in the area is urged to go indoors and close doors, windows and ventilation.
- The spread of smoke goes towards the central crowd, which may not be very good, says Ola Jakobsson.
