The police tricked fraudsters – waiting in ambush at the elderly woman’s house

A person has been hit by a bus at Brommaplan in western Stockholm.

The alarm came in at 9.49pm and the police, ambulance and emergency services are on the scene.

Drottningholmsvägen is closed in one direction during the rescue work, according to the rescue service.

– The bus has been impounded so that we can investigate what happened. But no one is suspected of crime at the moment, says Fredrik Andersson at the police.

An overloaded passenger boat has capsized in Congo-Kinshasa. At least 20 people died in connection with the accident in the western part of the country. The sinking in the Lukenie River was probably caused by the wooden boat colliding with logs.

Around 300 passengers were on board the boat, which was also fully loaded with goods and luggage.

– Yesterday four bodies were found and today we found another 16, says the head of the authority Jacques Nzenza in the Kutu region.

Accidents occur repeatedly on the important transport routes that the rivers form. Authorities have, for example, prohibited seafarers from traveling at night.

The search for additional victims will continue Wednesday, according to Nenza.

Robert Kennedy Jr. is considering ending his own presidential campaign — and joining Trump’s.

This is stated by the vice-presidential candidate Nicole Shanahan for CNBC.

– We have two options. One is that we form our own party. The second is that we take votes away from Trump, which could result in Kamala Harris and Walz winning.

UN reporters accuse Iran of denying Nobel laureate and human rights activist Narges Mohammadi access to essential medical care. The criticism comes after Mohammadi was assaulted in the Evin security prison where she is being held.

Mohammadi was subjected to “physical violence” and is said to have “lost consciousness and suffered injuries to ribs and other parts of the body” earlier in August, according to the experts who report to the UN Human Rights Council, but who are not the UN’s suit.

“We are deeply concerned about Mohammadi’s physical and mental well-being, which has been communicated to the Iranian government,” the reporters write.

“Once again, we call on Iran to immediately release her, and to provide her with full medical assistance.”

Mohammadi has been imprisoned since the fall of 2021, and has previously been deprived of liberty in rounds.

She was awarded the 2023 Nobel Peace Prize for her work for women’s rights in Iran, and for criticizing the Iranian state’s violent and repressive practices.

Two cars are involved in a traffic accident on the E18 near Östra Fågelvik.

– Two cars have driven into each other’s guardrail. They have not joined and collided with each other, says Lars Hedelin, the police’s press officer.

No injuries have been reported.

The accident affects traffic in both directions.

The man who fled on foot after his motorcycle overturned in Vänersborg has been arrested.

It was on Tuesday afternoon that the pursuit began after two people traveling on a motorcycle failed to stop for a police patrol’s stop sign. After a short pursuit, the motorcycle overturned and one of the people ran from the scene. The other, a 35-year-old man, was arrested by the police.

– Initially it was for suspected drunk driving, says police spokesperson Peter Adlersson to TT.

During the arrest, however, a backpack was found with a gun-like object as well as another suspected dangerous object, which has now been examined and taken care of by the National Bomb Squad.

According to the police, the object has been assessed as sharp. It has now been rendered harmless and will be transported away by the National Bomb Squad.

The man in his 30s who strayed from the scene and was searched with, among other things, a dog and a helicopter, has now been arrested in another part of Vänersborg. Both men are suspected of serious weapons offenses and preparation for public destruction.

On Tuesday, a hunt was carried out for a stolen jet ski in Mariefred.

A resident of Mariefred had called the police and reported that there had been a burglary in the garage and that a jet ski had been stolen.

Fortunately, there was a tracking device on the vehicle that made it possible to follow the theft route – along the E4 towards Södertälje.

The police stopped a car with the jet ski on a trailer near Nykvarn and seized the jet ski.

The driver was detained and suspected of grand theft.

A 35-year-old woman on a bicycle was hit by a motorist in Sollentuna municipality at around 15:30.

The woman had to go by ambulance for a check-up.

The motorist is suspected of failing to observe the right of way and causing bodily harm.

Early on Tuesday, a North Korean soldier crossed the border into South Korea, Reuters reports.

The defection from North Korea took place through the military-monitored border in the eastern part of the Korean Peninsula.

The soldier was taken into custody by the South Korean military and questioned about the motives for the crossing.

According to the Yonhap news agency, the soldier must have been a staff sergeant.

Earlier in August, another North Korean resident crossed the border on the west coast.

Defection by crossing the border directly is unusual and considered particularly risky, reports Reuters.

A woman on a bicycle has been hit by a motorist at a roundabout in Gällivare.

The woman is taken to hospital by ambulance.

The extent of the damage is unclear.

The driver of the car, a man, is suspected of not having observed the duty to yield to vehicles in a roundabout.

99-year-old former Nazi secretary Irmgard Furchner on Tuesday lost an appeal against a previous conviction for aiding and abetting the murder of more than 10,000 people in concentration camps.

Furchner was given a two-year suspended sentence at the end of 2022, when she was deemed complicit in the “cruel and malicious murders” of inmates at the Nazi concentration camp Stutthof in then-occupied Poland.

A federal court in a final appeal denied her request to have the conviction overturned.

Furchner was the secretary and managed the correspondence from the camp between June 1943 and April 1945, under the direction of the camp commander Paul Werner Hoppe. Furchner’s husband was an SS officer at the camp. Thus, the court ruled, Furchner knew well what happened to the victims in the camp.
