One person has not been accounted for after a house fire at Vingrom in Lillehammer last night. The police received a report about the fire at 01:50. – Then there was a full fire in a garage and a detached house, says operations manager Sidsel Svarstad in the Innlandet police district. The fire service has the fire under control and there is no danger of it spreading, but both the detached house and garage are completely damaged, she says. A resident is registered at the address, but the police do not yet know whether that person was in the home when the fire started. – The police want to get in touch with the resident, who will live there and possibly others who may have been in contact with him or have seen the person in question. Or whether there has been other activity at the site that can give us grounds to say what has happened. A car parked by the home was also damaged in the fire.

The fire service is working to extinguish the fire. It has not been possible to send in smoke divers. – The fire is extensive. It is burning well, but the fire service reports that they have it under control and that there is no danger of spreading, said Svarstad at 3 o’clock. In an update at 4 o’clock, the police write that the building cannot be saved. – We still do not have control over residents. We would like to get in touch with the person(s) who may have seen/spoken to the resident recently, the police write.
