This is what the Swedish newspaper writes The evening paper.
According to the police, stones have also been thrown at police cars.
– Several of our patrols have been subjected to stone throwing, says police spokesperson Patrick Fors to the newspaper.
According to Aftonbladet, there are between 50 and 100 people at the site. Most are spectators to what is happening, the police write on their website.
Altogether, there are fires in a dozen cars.
– The resources that are on site are now trained to handle this type of situation, says press spokesperson Evelina Olsson to Aftonbladet.
Earlier Sunday, a Koran was burned in Malmö.
Take a quick look at why this is causing a furor here:
The Koran burning on Sunday was carried out by the man behind a number of Koran burnings in Sweden, the Swedish-Iraqi Salwan Momika.
Several people were arrested in connection with the protests against the burning, and stones and bottles were thrown, writes NTB.
– I understand that a gathering like this arouses strong emotions, but we cannot tolerate disturbances and violent acts, said police chief Petra Stenkula.
