(AP) STOCKHOLM - Security was ramped up at Sweden's three nuclear power plants Thursday after explosives were found on a truck at the southwestern Ringhals atomic power station. Police said they were investigating possible sabotage.


Bomb sniffer dogs detected the explosives during a routine check Wednesday afternoon by security staff while the truck was in the power plant's industrial area near its high security enclosure. Police declined to describe the amount or type of explosive material found.


Bomb technicians said the material lacked a detonating device, meaning there was no danger of an imminent explosion.


Four nuclear reactors are at Ringhals, 45 miles south of Sweden's second-largest city, Goteborg. The plant is controlled by energy companies Vattenfall and E.ON.
