Four youths were taken to hospital during the night leading up to Monday after the car they were in crashed into a house in a villa area in Hofors, Gävleborg County.

The car was carrying an 18-year-old and three 15-year-olds.

We received an alarm from SOS at 02.41 that a car had crashed into a house for unknown reasons, but everyone had got out of the car and were awake and able to talk, says Alexander Byquist, duty officer at Police Region Mitt.

A 15-year-old boy was taken to hospital by ambulance, and the other three, an 18-year-old boy and two 15-year-old girls, made their own way to hospital for treatment.

I don't think any of them are seriously injured, says Alexander Byquist.

A report has been filed regarding reckless driving and three cases of bodily harm.

Since everyone was outside the car, it's a bit unclear who was actually driving, but the investigation will show, says Alexander Byquist.
