All emergency services responded to a collision between a watercraft and a boat in Bangsund in Trøndelag. The police received a report about the accident at 17.16 on Saturday. One person is seriously injured after the accident. The person was first taken by ambulance to the hospital in Namsos, but later flown to St. Olav’s hospital in Trondheim. – Health has decided that the person who is seriously injured will be flown to St. Olav’s hospital, says operations manager Roger Mogstad to news. Investigating the case A total of four people are involved in the accident. One person is slightly injured and two people are uninjured. They have been taken to the emergency department for a check-up. Rescue skates and rescue helicopters have assisted the police in the operation. – We have found the watercraft that had drifted a distance, which will be seized, says Mogstad. The police are interviewing witnesses and those involved at the scene. Rust tests will also be taken of those involved in the accident. The collision occurred in Bangsund in Trøndelag. Ending search for fisherman The search for a fisherman in Hommelvik ended at 6.30pm on Saturday. – We have ended the active search now, says operations manager Mogstad. The reason is that no discoveries have been made either in water or on land and no one has been reported missing in the area either. The police have made the decision in consultation with the Central Rescue Service. – We are creating an investigation into the relationship, then we will see what it brings next, says Mogstad. Large resources At 4pm on Saturday, the police started a search for a person in the water following a report that fishing equipment had been found on a hiking trail. – Then we have fishing equipment but lack a fisherman, said Mogstad. A witness saw a person fishing at the site around 3:30 p.m. On that basis, the police launched a search for the fisherman both in water and on land. The fire service has assisted the police with divers and the police have searched with dogs on land. It has also been searched with drones and underwater drones, writes Adresseavisen. The police have worked on the basis of several hypotheses in the search for the fisherman. The police are looking for searchers in water and on land for a person in Hommelvik.
