The driver is one of the injured, but he is not critically injured. Since the driver is receiving care, the police have not yet questioned him and have not been able to determine the exact sequence of events. However, according to witness statements to the police, the driver first crashed into a roadwork and lost control of the vehicle – and then drove into a cyclist and several people on the sidewalk, reports the news agency Ritzau.
When the driver has been questioned, the police will decide whether he should be suspected of a crime or not.

A large response with ambulances, rescue services, and police rushed to the scene. The driver had to be helped out of the car, which has crash damage to the front, writes Ekstrabladet.
