'Beetlejuice' actor Shadix dead at 58
STOCKHOLM, Sweden, Feb. 5 (UPI) -- Pedestrians are being injured by overhanging ice and snow falling from buildings in Stockholm, Swedish police say.
A 55-year-old woman suffered a compression fracture when snow fell on her from the roof of a seven-story building, Sweden's The Local reported Friday.
Another woman was taken to the hospital with a cut on her head Thursday after she was hit by falling ice in central Stockholm.
Since December, police say Stockholm's "icicle hotline" has received some 1,800 calls from concerned citizens about large amounts of ice and snow overhanging from buildings.
The hotline was established after the death of a 14-year-old boy in 2003.
