Carrots cause Swedish bomb scare

A Swedish art project caused a bomb scare when people mistook "carrot explosives" for the real thing.

The carrot bombs had been placed around the city at the request of a local art gallery, as part of an open-air arts festival.

They had only been in place for an hour before police received their first call.
