She added: ‘Fortunately, nobody has been injured – but cars, I cannot say what number, have been damaged.’
Police are yet to confirm a hand grenade caused the explosion, but Swedish media have reported the weapon of war was used.
A photographer for Swedish tabloid Aftonbladet said two people were arrested after the incident.
On December 29, a police car was destroyed in Malmo.
Two months before, a police station in Helsingborg was bombed.
