Two people were hospitalized after a serious traffic crash on Eriksfältsgatan in Malmö on Saturday evening, continuing Skåne's spate of accidents due to slippery winter roads. The collision just before 7 p.m. at the Munkhättegatan intersection involved two passenger cars and three people.
Rescue services, police, and ambulances responded to the scene. Two victims were trapped in one car and freed using hydraulic tools. "They were awake and talking... Otherwise, the extent of injuries is unclear. They were taken to hospital," said Christian Frost, duty officer.
Ola Nilsson, team leader at SOS Alarm, said shortly after: "Two passenger cars with a total of three people. Rescue services, police, and ambulance alerted."
One car ended up on the sidewalk; both vehicles were towed. The incident underscores persistent slippery conditions across Skåne on Saturday, building on Friday's multiple crashes.
