A truck and some kind of van have crashed outside Götlunda in Örebro County, according to the police.

The injury situation is described as very serious. We have two confirmed injured, possibly more, says the police's press spokesperson Lars Hedelin.

A man has been taken to hospital by ambulance, according to the police.

The van was completely engulfed in flames after the collision, but has now been extinguished. The truck did not carry hazardous goods, according to the police's information.

Generally, I can say that it's a very serious accident, says Hedelin.
