On Thursday afternoon, two employees at the health center at Saupstad in Trondheim were attacked with a sharp object. One offended person is described as slightly injured, while the other person is in St. Olav’s hospital. The police cannot say anything more about the health status. Charged for fire in May A woman in her 40s is charged with grievous bodily harm after the incident. She will be produced for remand on Saturday. – The police will ask for remand for the accused woman on the basis of the risk of tampering with evidence and the risk of repetition. This is what the prosecutor in the case, Lars Lundlie, says in a press release on Friday morning. A man in his 30s has been charged with complicity in grievous bodily harm. It has not been decided whether the man will be produced for imprisonment. – The police can confirm that there is a relationship between the two accused and that both have the status of being charged with serious damage after a fire at Nav Falkenborg in Trondheim on 26 May this year, the police write. As of now, the two accused have not wanted to be questioned by the police. It is too early to say anything about a motive in the case. Large police resources moved to the health centre.

On Friday morning, the police will be present at the health center to answer questions from the public. Ranum adds that it is good to record that the security and emergency team, in collaboration with the police and other agencies, did a good job in the situation that arose. – It is a bit early right now to conclude what we can do further, he says. – But I take this very seriously, and will go through what we can do to tighten security and secure employees better than today.

It is regrettable and should not happen. Set fire to sofa The two people are also charged with a fire at Nav Falkenborg in May. Then there was lighter fluid all over a sofa and lit on fire.
