A man in his 80s has died in connection with a motorcycle accident outside Falkenberg.

What I can establish is that we received an alarm regarding an accident between a motorcycle and some kind of wheel loader. I don't know more about the sequence of events than that, says Fredrik Svedemyr, press spokesperson at the police.

The man who died was on the motorcycle.

The police have seized the wheel loader and motorcycle. The case is being investigated as manslaughter and gross negligence in traffic.

This is an initial classification and no one has been suspected. We need to have a classification to be able to carry out investigative measures.

The alarm about the accident came at 12.30 on Saturday.
