On Saturday at 12:52, a traffic accident occurred in Nuuk at the traffic lights on H.J. Rinksvej. Two cars collided head-on.
This is according to the head of the Greenland Police, Karsen Højrup Kristensen.
The two cars came from opposite directions and drove into the intersection, just as the light was about to change, and both thought they could make it across, after which they crashed.
- Major material damage. Both cars are completely damaged. The two people have been taken to hospital for check-ups, says Karsen Højrup Kristensen.
He says that the two people are not in danger of death. There was only one person in each car.
There was some unrest at the intersection as both cars had to be removed by a flatbed truck, but they are now gone.
The chief of police says the police are investigating the matter to find out exactly what happened.
