January 7, 15:13, Workplace Accident, Degerfors

A man in his sixties has been taken to hospital with a serious injury after a type of traffic accident involving a snowplow vehicle. The vehicle, which was on a snow-clearing assignment in the Degerfors community, when the plow took a sudden stop in a snow obstacle. The driver of the vehicle sustained injuries that require hospital care. During the night, a man in his mid-thirties was injured in a similar accident at exactly the same location, and this driver also sustained injuries that require hospital care. The police are therefore setting up two reports of work-related accidents in order to investigate whether anyone has failed in their responsibility to ensure a safe work environment.
