The building has a good distance from other buildings, but Lunde emphasizes that it is a large building we are talking about. Witnesses are encouraged to keep their distance. The municipality has been notified and the fire service is in the process of extinguishing, says Aalberg. The safety distance is set to 300 metres. The emergency services are in the process of evacuating. Rørvik Health Center will be the evacuation point for the evacuees. – How many are being evacuated? – We don’t have an overview of that, but there are a lot of residents within the 300-metre circle. It is something we continuously assess all the time. The fire should not have spread any further, according to Aalberg. – We are continuously working to obtain an overview and intelligence on what the building contains. It is still uncertain what caused the fire. The police have set a safety distance of 300 metres. Photo: Tips Published 09.12.2024, at 19.32 Updated 09.12.2024, at 20.22
