The police were alerted to the accident at 10 a.m. The road between Hörja and Hörlinge was closed, and traffic was stopped in both directions.
The situation at the scene was initially described as chaotic, with pigs running into the surrounding fields. Police, rescue services, an on-call veterinarian and municipal hunters from Hässleholm worked at the scene, according to Norra Skåne.
A total of 160 pigs were reportedly involved in the accident, but only 50 were in the part of the transport that overturned. The extent of their injuries is unclear.
The driver is said to be unharmed. There is no suspicion of a crime in connection with the accident, the police said on their website at noon.
