Two cars have collided head-on on Bergslagsvägen near Spånga outside Stockholm, which P4 Stockholm was the first to report on.

We have cut open a car and taken out a person, said Jarmo Carlsten, control operator, earlier to TT.

Four people were taken to hospital by ambulance, according to SOS Alarm. The injuries vary from minor to serious, according to the police.

A report of gross negligence leading to bodily harm has been filed.

There were two cars involved. As I understand it, one of the drivers is suspected, says the police's press spokesperson Carina Skagerlind.

Bergslagsvägen was initially closed in both directions and the incident had a significant impact on traffic, but by 17:30, traffic was back to normal.
