A man in his 50s was found seriously injured on Monday evening on a country road in Bräcke municipality, west of Östersund.

The man was found next to a four-wheeler, but it is unclear how the accident happened or when it happened.

– We were alerted by a passerby who found the man at 10:30 p.m., but there are no witnesses to the accident so it may have happened earlier in the evening. The four-wheeler also stood up, so it is unclear exactly what has happened, but he is seriously injured, says Björn Pettersson, commander at police region North.

The man was taken to hospital by ambulance helicopter.
