Swedish police said that one person had died and one was missing, both German nationals, after a small amphibious plane crashed in a lake in central Sweden.
"We have a confirmed plane crash, that occurred during the afternoon," police spokeswoman Diana Qudhaib told AFP on Monday.
Police said the plane was a two-engine amphibious plane that had taken off from a nearby airfield, with two people aboard, both German citizens.
After a rescue operation was launched, an ambulance helicopter located one of the two people.
"Attempts to resuscitate him started, but a man in his 60s has died," Qudhaib said.
The second person is still missing, and police said in a later statement that the search would be continued Tuesday.
Police also said that a preliminary investigation had been launched.
