Sweden’s police announced on Tuesday that the five men, between 20 and 45 years old, were killed in a car accident.
A truck and a car collided, from the front on one of the roads linking the two small cities of Skara and Falköping.
The car caught fire as a result of the accident, which caused the road to be closed for several hours.
The accident took place about 100 kilometers northeast of the city of Göteborg.
Last June, one person was killed and nine injured, including children, in a roller coaster accident at the Grona Lund amusement park in the Swedish capital.
“We have had a very serious accident in the roller coaster Jetline, where one person has died and nine people have been injured,” Jan Eriksson, the park’s chief executive, said in a press conference.
“Something like this should not happen at Grona Lund, and yet it happened,” Eriksson added.
