- I do not know how extensive injuries the person has, he sat in the ambulance and got some kind of help, says police spokesman Ola Österling.

The fire, which started just before 18.00, has been extinguished and the apartment has been ventilated as it was previously filled with smoke.

The rescue service remains on site to check that the fire does not spread to other parts of the building.

It is unclear how the fire started.

The police do not suspect any crime at the moment.
