One killed, nine injured in roller coaster crash in Sweden

Stockholm [Sweden], June 26: One person was killed and nine injured, including children, in a roller coaster accident at the Grona Lund amusement park in the Swedish capital, representatives of the park said.
Eyewitnesses said the park's Jetline roller coaster had partly derailed during a ride, sending people crashing to the ground.
Ambulances, fire trucks and a helicopter were seen arriving shortly after the accident, and police launched an investigation.
Police said the nine injured people were being treated in hospital, and that three had severe injuries.
The park spokesperson said 14 people were on the roller coaster when the front part partially derailed. It then stopped in the middle of the track with one carriage leaning out.
Jenny Lagerstedt, a journalist visiting the park with her family, told Swedish broadcaster SVT she was nearby and heard a metallic noise and noticed the track structure was shaking at the time of the accident.
Grona Lund is a popular attraction on the waterfront on one of Stockholm's many islands, surrounded by several museums.
The steel-tracked Jetline roller coaster reaches a speed of up to 90 kph (56 mph) and a height of 30 metres (98 feet), transporting more than one million visitors each year, the amusement park says on its website.
Sweden's Culture Minister ParisaLiljestrand said news of the accident was incomprehensible.
