A 20-year-old man is being prosecuted for, among other things, grossly causing another person's death following a traffic accident outside Norrköping last May, where three teenagers died, reports P4 Östergötland.

The 20-year-old is also being prosecuted for gross negligence in traffic. According to the indictment, he allegedly drove at too high a speed in his vehicle at the time of the accident, which led to loss of control and him driving off the road.

In the accident, five young people were injured, a girl and two boys between 16 and 18 years old died.
