Just before midnight on Saturday, several witnesses reported that two masked men, armed with a hand grenade and pistol-like objects, stormed a gym in Gävle.

But when the police arrived at the scene, it turned out to be a misunderstanding, which Gefle Dagblad first reported on.

It turned out to be a film shoot that they hadn't notified us about, says the officer in charge at the police to TT, and adds:

It got a bit dramatic when we arrived, as you draw weapons, of course.

The situation was quickly resolved, and the film team received a warning.

They got a bit of a scolding and had to stop their filming. It wasn't okay to continue when several callers had reported this, they can continue another day, says the police officer in charge.
