For some reason, the car has become stuck between the barriers. A number of people in the car managed to get out before the collision occurred, says Anders Dahlman, press spokesperson for the Örebro police.

No one was physically injured in the collision.

The police have initiated a preliminary investigation into reckless driving, where the suspect is the car driver.

After the accident, there was initially a stop on the railway stretch between Örebro and Hallsberg. The trains between Stockholm and Gothenburg via Västerås and Hallsberg were affected.

At 13.20, train traffic could be resumed, but some subsequent delays occurred on the routes, according to SJ.
