The accident occurred late on Friday evening. The woman injured her neck and shoulder in connection with the accident, and an ambulance was called to the scene.

She injured her neck and shoulder. Possibly, she has a broken collarbone, says the police's press spokesperson Hans-Jörgen Ostler to Aftonbladet.

The police have filed a report on causing bodily harm.

At present, I do not see that anything is set up as suspicious. But likely, we have or will talk to the company that runs the carousels, he continues.

The accident occurred in connection with Dansbandsveckan, which is arranged in the city. Lars Bälter, communications and media manager for Dansbandsveckan, tells Aftonbladet that the carousel had been inspected and approved.

It's terribly tragic, unfortunate and sad, he says about what happened.
