According to the First Deputy Head of the National Police, Vyacheslav Abroskin, a 38-year-old man, while intoxicated, released an RGD-5 grenade onto the floor, which exploded under him.

According to preliminary data from specialists from the police explosives department, the explosion occurred due to careless handling of ammunition. Criminal proceedings have been opened under Part 1 of Art. 115 (premeditated murder) and Part 1 of Art. 263 (illegal handling of weapons, ammunition and explosive devices) of the Criminal Code of Ukraine.
