Motorcycle rider dead after motorcycle drove into the crowd in Falkenberg

A fatal accident occurred during an event in Falkenberg on Friday when a motorcycle rider lost control and the motorcycle veered into the crowd. The rider died of his injuries and a spectator was injured.

According to police, the driver, a man, lost control during a demonstration and fell off the motorcycle. He died in the accident, which occurred at around 6 p.m.

Then, as I understand it, the motorcycle continued into the crowd and hit a person who was also injured, police spokesman Jens Andersson told TT.

The spectator, a woman, was flown to hospital in unclear condition.

The police cannot say exactly what type of event it was, but many people were there. According to Hallands Nyheter, it took place in an industrial area.

The motorcycle continued into a building that caught fire, but the fire was later extinguished.

The motorcycle will be examined.
