A 35-year-old Polish woman and her 7-year-old son were killed in a fall from a ferry between Sweden and Poland on Thursday. Swedish police are investigating whether there has been a murder.
Swedish police spokesman Rickard Lundqvist says no SVT News that there are “circumstances” to label the case as suspected murder. According to him, the police have an image of what happened, but do not want to share it. Justice reports that no suspects have been arrested yet.
The Stena Line ferry sailed from Karlskrona in Sweden to Gdynia in Poland on Thursday. According to previous reports, the boy fell off the ship halfway through the journey, after which his mother jumped after him. The police cannot confirm that.
The mother and the boy were taken alive from the sea during a search. According to The evening paper they were unconscious. They were then taken to a hospital in Karlskrona. On Friday it was announced that they had died there.
