Hans Arne Nystad (49) died in Lavangen – news Troms and Finnmark

VG mentioned the name first. According to the newspaper, it must have been the farmer himself who contacted the Emergency Medicine Communication Center (AMK). The name is published in consultation with one of the children of the deceased, confirms the assistance lawyer to news. The police were contacted by AMK to assist in a health mission. It was during this mission that the man was shot and killed by the police. The police patrol should have arrived at the scene at approximately 01.40, on the night of Friday. At the scene, a situation is said to have arisen, which led to the police firing shots at the man. He is said to have been driving a wheel loader at the time. The incident is being investigated by the Bureau of Police Affairs, with assistance from Kripos. Lights and flowers lit in Lavangen after the police shooting.

He told news on Monday that he will follow the investigation closely and that some information is still missing. – It seems like a relatively excessive situation, but we do not know why this was allegedly necessary, Elden said on Monday. Discontinues animal husbandry The Norwegian Food Safety Authority is discontinuing animal husbandry on the farmer’s farm, writes Folkebladet. A large number of pregnant cows can thus be slaughtered. – In collaboration with Nortura, we assess with each individual animal what is best to do in terms of animal welfare. Then it is also included in the assessment of whether any of the animals can be relocated or sold. But there is no doubt that some must also be slaughtered, says Torkjell Andersen at the Norwegian Food Safety Authority’s Troms and Svalbard department. He confirms that there are currently 71 cattle on the farm. The pictures show the wheel loader that the man is said to have been driving when he was shot by the police on the night of Friday 9 December. Video: Hanne Wilhelms / news
