The 88 meter long, 3961 dwt freighter Malta Cement went aground near Mörkö, Sweden.   The freighter loaded with 3700 tons of cement suffered slight damage to the hull near the propeller allowing some water ingress.   The Swedish Coast Guard dispatched vessels to the scene to monitor the vessel.  No reports of injuries or pollution released into the water.   Two tugs were on scene as divers conduct an inspection and a salvage plan is worked out.
