Two people died in a head-on collision between two cars on the E39 near Fidjane just west of Kristiansand on Wednesday night.
The emergency services were notified of the accident at 00:35.
About an hour later, the Agder police district informs that two of the people involved in the accident have been declared dead by a doctor on the spot. A third person is injured and sent to hospital. None of the dead have been identified. Therefore, no next of kin have been notified either. The deceased were each in their own car.
The E39 is closed in both directions west of Rige until further notice, the Swedish Road Traffic Agency informs. According to the police, the road will be closed for several hours in the future.
The Swedish Road Administration’s accident team and the police’s forensic technicians have been notified.
The friend of the fatherland writes that there are medians at the place where the accident happened.
