Man dies after workplace accident in Jönköping Municipality

The accident was reported at 11 a.m. on Wednesday. The man was taken to hospital, where he later died, police said.

The incident is being investigated as a workplace accident, but it is still unclear what caused it.

It is unusual for someone to be run over by a truck, so we need to look at how this could have happened and whether there was a failure somewhere in the safety work, says Angelica Israelsson Silfver, police press spokesperson.

We have spoken to witnesses and documented the accident scene with photos, she adds.
