The alarm came in at 12:15 p.m. – They are evacuating people from the gondolas, says the rescue service’s management operator. The police have also been on the scene. – The evacuees are on their way to a sports hall to warm up, says police spokesperson Gabriel Henning. Guys riding the wire Jörgen Linder, 64, witnessed the rescue operation, which he estimates lasted a couple of hours. – They have guys who come riding on the wire itself and go up on the roof. You put some kind of lifting device on people and lift them down one by one, says Jörgen Linder to TV4 Nyheterna and continues: – I hope no one gets hurt. It seems peaceful. Those who come down are given blankets and taken to a warming cabin.
