A boy on a bicycle has been hit by a motorhome on highway 26 (Nissanstigen) in Hyltebruk in Halland County on Saturday, according to the police.

The alarm about the incident came shortly after 1 pm on Saturday. The boy, who is five years old, is said to have been seriously injured and was taken to hospital by ambulance.

The injury situation is serious. That's the information I have, says Hans-Jörgen Ostler, press spokesperson for the Western Police Region to TT.

How the accident occurred is not yet clear, according to him.

The police's suspicions are currently gross negligence in traffic and causing bodily harm, but no one is suspected.

The road has been reopened. The police have seized the motorhome, and it will be towed from the scene.

The police are working on initial investigative measures, such as documenting the sequence of events, interviewing witnesses to the incident, and photographing tire tracks and vehicles.
