Two people have suffered smoke injuries after a wildfire in Trysil in Norway, near the Swedish border.

The risk of spread was initially considered high to nearby residential areas due to the wind direction, but the rescue service was soon able to blow the danger over.

Two adults and a child were on the scene. The adults have inhaled smoke and are receiving care from ambulance personnel. The risk of spread is considered over, the fire department has control of the fire, says the incident commander to VG.
