Swedish police have found two bags of inflammable liquids at an asylum
centre that housed an Eritrean man who stabbed two people to death at
an Ikea furniture store.
Swedish Migration Agency spokesman Fredrik Bengtsson said that 83
residents were evacuated from the asylum centre in Arboga in central
Sweden. No arrests have been made.
Mr Bengtsson said police have stepped up patrols at the shelter since
Monday, when the 36-year-old Eritrean man - who has not been named,
killed a Swedish woman and her adult son in Vasteras, west of
Stockholm.
It was not clear whether the liquids finding was linked to a Thursday
rally where a handful of protesters shouted anti-immigrant slogans
outside the asylum centre and threw eggs.
