Police have sealed off a block of flats in the Swedish city of Malmo following an explosion.

The bomb squad and a dog unit are at the scene, but it is currently unclear what caused the blast.

Police were alerted at at 9.19pm by a number of people living nearby.

"We got calls from two people with five minutes apart," says police spokesperson Calle Persson.

Four police patrols were sent to the site but there is currently no indication that anyone has been injured, Expressen reports.

It comes as Sweden remains in the spotlight for the conditions experience by recent immigrants in its suburbs.

I remember seeing a program about Malmo about ten years ago. Possibly on PBS Frontline. They showed a few rather OK looking muslim shopkeepers selling goods, making falafel, but also said that Malmo had zones where the Swedish police dared not go.

So, we’ve been informed. The current conditions were entirely predictable.

Only incident Swedish language media is reporting is some guy with a hand grenade flinging said hand grenade at someone and the victim suffering shrapnel wounds.
