Four people, including several from the same family, were taken to hospital by ambulance. According to Region Skåne, a girl aged 6–10 years has serious injuries, while a two-year-old and two women in their 45s are lightly injured.

According to the initial witness statements, one does not perceive that it should have been a deliberate act, but an accident. But it is very early and we cannot draw any conclusions yet, says the police's press spokesperson Evelina Olsson to TT.

The driver, a man in his 20s, was questioned at the scene, but no offence classification exists at present. The car has been seized for technical examination.

According to the first information from the police, five people had been taken to hospital, a figure that was later revised to four.
