According to Expressen, the incident occurred when Ekborg and another man were riding an electric scooter on Östermalm and crashed into a car, breaking its taillight. Ekborg fell after the crash, and when the female driver exited her vehicle, the prosecution alleges he called her offensive names. The specific traffic ordinance violation he is charged with has not been detailed, and the identity and role of the other man remain unclear.
Ekborg and the man then left the scene, but police later found them at a pub. The exact circumstances leading to the crash and the full extent of damage to the car beyond the broken taillight are unknown. In response, Ekborg stated he does not remember the incident and apologized, suggesting it must have been a shock if there was an accident.
He denies the crime, and the current status of the legal proceedings is not confirmed. Ekborg is currently involved in the TV4 program 'Förrädarna', which had its season premiere last week.
