Just before 4 p.m., the emergency services and the police were called to county road 661, north of Almunge by Kyrkbyn, where a motorbike police officer collided with a deer.
– The driver has been taken to hospital, and is said to have been conscious but will be checked, says Tobias Ahlén-Svalbro, the police’s press officer.
According to the police, the accident must have happened during some kind of exercise and not during an emergency.
The police do not suspect any crime at this time and a hunter has been dispatched to investigate the deer.
