A paraglider has flown into a mountain wall in Åre, reports Östersunds-Posten. An ambulance helicopter is on site.

The ambulance helicopter is loading the paraglider and the rescue service has taken the gondola up to help with the operation. The person is said to be able to speak, says the rescue service's incident commander Anna Hammarberg to the magazine.

The alarm came in at 13.37. The paraglider escaped without more serious injuries, writes SVT Jämtland.
