At 21:00 last night, within a few minutes, it was reported twice that explosive devices had been placed in the building of the police department in Momchilgrad.

During the immediate actions to identify the perpetrator, a 43-year-old local resident was detained an hour later.

The phone from which the signals were sent was confiscated.
