Two significant fires broke out in Hörby on Thursday evening.

The second fire ignited just 20 minutes later in the Old Mill in central Hörby, which was fully engulfed in flames upon the fire department's arrival.

A third, suspicious fire also affected a property on a farm in Hyllinge during the night.

Authorities suspect arson and have filed a report to investigate further.
