Stockholm was burning Tuesday night.
According to Expressen.se, people throughout Stockholm and several other cities, are organized and instructed from a Facebook group.
– ‘We are investigating a possible communication via Facebook”, says Lars Bystrom, press spokesman at the Stockholm police.

The Stockholm police had prepared themselves ahead of Tuesday night. Bricks had been cleaned from the streets and reinforcement was brought in to prevent more riots in Husby.
All of a sudden – it exploded everywhere.
Emergency calls arrived throughout the city: “FIRE!”.
At 2:00 AM ten suburbs were reported to be involved in the riots.
And according to information from Expressen.se, everything was co-ordinated through a Facebook group.
– I was told by someone that several places were about to be set on fire. So I asked: How do you know this ? Shortly thereafter I was shown the Facebook group, a person told Expressen.se.

The group consists of people from different suburbs of Stockholm, as well as other cities in the country.
It was formed even before the riots started, according to Expressen.se. And the group was created because of a common hatred against the police.
“When the police shot a 69-year-old man (who had taken hostages – threatening to kill both hostages and any policeman in sight. The man was armed with machete and a huge knife) the group started planning the riots”.
Members serve as contacts between youth in the suburbs and the group itself. All decisions are taken in the group.

According to the group, several places throughout Sweden are picked as the next tragets.One of those targets is Gothenburg.
An insider told Expressen: “The goal is to spread the riots to the suburbs of Gothenburg – as well as other cities in Sweden.”
Stockholm Police confirms that they are investigating the possibility that young people are organizing themselves by the use of social networks.
