The phrase "Guess what I'm back" accompanied a picture of the Thursday incident, according to Joakim Hansson, assistant officer in charge of police in the Western Region.

"Now we have been in contact with the police several times that do not believe that the threat is serious. We can therefore conduct our business," said Anne-Charlotte Robb, principal of Greve Farm School.

She added that she is "very worried." 

"It is extremely unpleasant. There are cameras in the school and I hope they caught the culprit on the image," Robb said.

The Kannebäck School in Gothenburg also received threats, though the details remain unknown.
