– We worked on the basis of several theories, both tactical and technical, says police task leader Aine Eker to news. A single-family house in Råde had caught fire when the emergency services arrived at around 12:00 on Monday. A dead person was immediately found by an entrance door. At the same time, the emergency services thought it was too dangerous to enter the house. Operations leader Aina Eker.

There is a lot of heat in the home, which made the work easier, says project manager Eker. Only after 16:30 did crime technicians arrive at the address in Råde. Parts of the home had to be demolished before smoke divers and crime scene technicians could enter it.

It is the same person who was reported missing. – The next of kin have now been notified of the findings of both, says the task leader. Several witnesses at the scene have told of several bangs ahead of the fire. Eker does not want to go into detail about it. – Hopefully the investigation will give us an answer to this. Both technically and tactically, she says. Operations manager Terje Marstad in the East police district previously confirmed to news that they had received the same information about explosions related to the incident. – I have good faith that we will be able to say something about the cause when we have a more thorough look at the crime scene, and what has happened there, said operations manager Marstad.
