Sweden: Two injured as hand grenade explodes at Stockholm subway station

Jan 7, 2018 9:18 am By Robert Spencer

“‘There was something on the ground that the man picked up, and then it exploded,’ Sven-Erik Olsson of the Stockholm police told the TT news agency. He added that he suspected the two victims were not purposely targeted by whoever left the explosive.”

Random jihad attack most likely, in that case.

“The Aftonbladet newspaper reported that the blast was from was a hand grenade, though this remains unconfirmed and police have refused to comment on the matter.”

How culturally enriched Sweden now is! Even just five years ago, we never heard about hand grenades being randomly left around in subway stations. The new, diverse Sweden is so much more exciting.

“Two injured in explosion at Stockholm subway station,” The Local, January 7, 2018 (thanks to Ken):

Two people have been taken to hospital after an explosion outside a Stockholm subway station.

The explosion occurred late on Sunday morning outside the Vårby Gård station, in Stockholm’s south west, and left a 60-year-old man with serious injuries.

“There was something on the ground that the man picked up, and then it exploded,” Sven-Erik Olsson of the Stockholm police told the TT news agency.

He added that he suspected the two victims were not purposely targeted by whoever left the explosive.

The Aftonbladet newspaper reported that the blast was from was a hand grenade, though this remains unconfirmed and police have refused to comment on the matter.

A 45-year-old woman was also injured in the blast although it’s understood she only suffered minor injuries….

    Well, at least it cannot be blamed on a Muslim. In England it is an offence to connect the word Muslim or Islam with terrorism. So, as Mad Max and Bill have already suggested the culprit is therefore a mentally deficient Christian, one of those hideously white wretches who try to impede Multicultural ”fusion” in their respective countries, Bastards eh ?

      I’m sure it’s just one of those WWII remnants lying about.

    It was just reported that the man died in the hospital.

    Robert is correct. Live grenades are a natural manifestation of the subway landscape.

    Folks, to be clear, this was not a hand grenade. It must have been some kind of homemade device. In the Army, we had extensive training with hand grenades. Just about everything and everyone within a 40 foot radius is seriously impacted. Anything within 5-10 feet is torn completely to shreds. There is zero chance this man would have survived if it went off in his immediate presence. Zero.

    I know it’s not the point, I get that. But words matter. Barring it being some defective World War I dud, this wasn’t a “hand grenade” as the Swedish headline reported.

      Was thinking the same thing rich…..there wouldn’t have much left of the poor guy to survive the ride to hospital.

        Exactly correct, LirC.

          It was a “Swedish Hand Granade” – newspeak for a low power IED

      Agree with rich. The Swedish police are not telling the whole story… as usual!

      The Swedish police have zero credibility unless they are posting on facebook or twitter unofficially as citizens.

    The blame now and for awhile now lies solely on those people who continue to push for mass migration and welcome these murderous thugs with open arms into their culture….suicidal indeed!!! We all know who it is….THE LEFTIST hordes. Jihadis must be dealt with aggressively, and their enablers…until the politicians and law enforcement decide to stop playing fiddle sticks and actually proactively raid and dismantle mosques/places of business/etc…and then deal with the traitorous Left that allowed them to be in the country in the first place…The same cycle will repeat over and over again.

    Like a cancer…once you get it you’re constantly trying to cut it out and remove….NOT the other way around by inviting more to take root.

    Sweden: Two injured as hand grenade explodes at Stockholm subway station
    ………………………..

    I’m just glad no one was killed–this time, at least.

    There will be more and more of this as Sweden continues to be overrun by Muslims.

    Difficult for students of history to appreciate Sweden as the same country
    which produced VIKINGS and the LION OF THE NORTH….

    And on the other side of Europe, Orban has told the Bavarians that they can think of him as their Border Patrol Captain:

      Viktor Orbán had been counseled by Sebastian Gorka early on.

        I didn’t know. Thanks for the info. Gorka is solid in his knowledge.

      Amazing, an elected leader saying he will do what people want, AND committed to doing what a government is primarily supposed to do!

      I like him.

    Sweden is being culturally enriched out of existence.

    The Coudenhove-kalergi plan people must be pleased…..you know,the plan that calls for the REPLACEMENT of the people of the EU by allowing mass immigration to create a multicult paradise.

    At least the East European nations are seeing through this…

    Since Merkel and Juncker are C-K medal prizewinners they must be familiar with this sinister project.Many political leaders subscribe to this Great Plan which is destroying Europe:it should not be surprising to see that these political leaders of these European nations are responsible for this.

      Breitbart just announced the death of Peter Sutherland, ‘father of globalisation’.

      Opening a celebratory beer now.
