A Swedish cleaning lady on Tuesday commandeered an empty Stockholm commuter train, which careered off the tracks when it reached the end of the line and smashed into a block of flats, police said.
警方表示，一名瑞典清潔女工週二偷開一輛空無一人的斯德哥爾摩通勤火車，火車開到軌道盡頭時脫軌撞入一戶平房。
The woman’s condition was "serious but stable", Stockholm police spokesman Lars Bystroem said. She was detained on suspicion of destroying public property, a crime punishable by up to eight years in jail.
斯德哥爾摩警方發言人畢斯特隆表示，該名女子的傷勢「嚴重但穩定」。她因涉嫌毀損公共財產遭到拘留，這項罪名最高可處以8年徒刑。
The train slammed into a three-storey building in the upscale Saltsjoebaden neighbourhood. It was unclear why the woman stole the train from a Stockholm depot. "The train was wrecked," Stockholm Public Transport spokesman Jesper Pettersson said.
火車撞入薩爾特舍巴登高級社區的3層樓建物，該名女子為何要從斯德哥爾摩車廠把火車偷開走仍不清楚。斯德哥爾摩公共運輸發言人彼得森表示，「火車撞爛了」。
Travelling at 80 kilometres per hour, it bolted off the tracks when it reached the end of the line and hurtled 25 metres in the snow before crashing to a final halt.
火車以80公里的時速疾行，抵達軌道終點時，衝出鐵軌，並在雪地中猛衝25公尺，最後撞毀才停下來。
The woman, born in 1990, had worked for a cleaning company contracted by the transport group "for a few months, with good results," Arriva spokesman Tomas Hedenius said.
該名女子生於1990年，運輸集團Arriva的發言人赫德紐斯表示，她在承包Arriva工作的清潔公司工作了「幾個月，表現不錯。」
Driving the train was "doable" for most people, as long as they had the key, he added. （AFP）
他補充說，開火車對大多數人都是「辦得到的」，只要有鑰匙就可以。（法新社）
