Residents of Kaljska Street in Susedgrad were shocked when, in the early morning hours of September 11, 2024, a powerful explosion destroyed two cars. An unknown perpetrator placed an improvised explosive device on a Peugeot car, registered with Zagreb plates, owned by a trading company, which was being used by another company. After setting up the device, the perpetrator activated it, causing a significant material damage due to the explosion. The violent act did not result in human casualties, but both cars were significantly damaged.
In addition to the Peugeot, the explosion also affected a Mazda car, also with Zagreb registration plates, which was owned by a 68-year-old man. This incident, which has shaken the local community, is not the first of its kind in Zagreb, where similar situations have recently caused unrest among citizens. In a similar explosion earlier this year at another Zagreb location, the detonation of a hand grenade caused significant damage to buildings and vehicles, although fortunately injuries were avoided.
The police reacted quickly and conducted a detailed investigation to gather evidence that could help identify the perpetrator. Such cases usually require extensive investigation to ensure that those responsible are brought to justice. The local population has been urged to be cautious, and the police have requested assistance from anyone with information about the incident to help illuminate the case.
Explosions in urban areas like Zagreb always raise concerns about the safety of citizens, and increased security measures are often implemented to prevent similar events in the future. Residents of Susedgrad reported that the explosion was so powerful it caused a flash of light visible in surrounding buildings, further confirming the extent of the incident. Following the event, the police increased their presence in this part of the city, and relevant services began a criminal investigation in collaboration with the bomb disposal unit.
Such attacks have serious consequences for the community, even though this case avoided human tragedy. The material damage to the vehicles is significant, and citizens face a sense of insecurity. The police will continue to conduct an intensive investigation with the aim of bringing the perpetrator to justice, while citizens are encouraged to cooperate and report any suspicious activities in their neighborhoods.
