Police said one person was killed and seven people, both children and adults, were hospitalized after the roller coaster derailed.
Park officials told public broadcaster SVT that that one of the carriages on the Jetline rollercoaster derailed and people fell to the ground at the Grona Lund amusement park.
"It is incredibly tragic and shocking," park spokeswoman Annika Troselius told SVT. "Unfortunately we have been informed that one person is killed and many are injured." A photo taken on June 25, 2023 shows police at the Grona Lund amusement park, after an accident occurred in the 'Jetline' roller coaster leaving one person dead. The amusement park was evacuated to facilitate the work of rescue crews.
SVT reporter Jenny Lagerstedt, who was standing in line for another ride, said the carriage was at a high altitude. "Suddenly I heard a metallic thud and then the rides started to shake," she said. Rescuers had to remove other passengers who were stuck in other carriages on the roller coaster after the accident.
