Swedish passenger ferries collide
Two large passenger ferries have collided outside a port south of Stockholm on Thursday, injuring at least 12 people.
Rescue services spokesman Anders Edstam said one person was seriously hurt and 11 suffered minor injuries in the crash in Nynashamn, 35 miles from Stockholm.
All were taken to a local hospital.
Edstam said the 640ft-long ferry Gotland hit the side of the 400ft-long Gotlandia II, tearing a hole in its side.
Maritime Rescue Co-ordination Centre spokesman Jonas Malmstedt said there were no reports of either ferry taking in water after the collision.
It wasn't immediately clear what caused the accident.
The two ships together were carrying more than 1,800 passengers between Nynashamn and the island of Gotland, a popular summer resort in the Baltic Sea.
