A car that was left unattended in Hafnarfjörður on Sunday rolled into a playground where two children used a swing and hit one of them.
Parents had to lift the vehicle off the child who was taken to hospital; no precise information is available on the condition of the accident. But Sævar Guðmundsson, local police chief, suggested that the accident could have been more serious, according to mbl.is.
It is said that the driver of the car got out of his car after not applying the gear or the handbrake. The car then rolled down a hill and entered the playground.
“This violates the provisions of the Traffic Act; it remains to be seen whether there will be a charge. The case is under investigation by us and the man will be questioned, “said Sævar.
The children had celebrated a birthday at a nearby home and several other party guests witnessed the event. Support has been made available to anyone who may be affected by the incident.
