The He 111 ditched in Roskilde Fjord about 1 kilometre north of “Kronprins Frederiks” bridge near Frederikssund where it sank in 6 metres of water. The crew were unharmed.

For some reason the Luftwaffe did not recover the aircraft and in 1951 permission to do so was granted Mr. Chr. Petersen of Frederikssund by the Danish Ministry of Defence.
