Crime scene technicians are also on site on Friday to carry out investigations and look for projectiles. The police have already confirmed that there are at least five shooting holes. On the facade on Friday, they marked at least six holes. Clear opinion about weapons The police have a clear opinion about what kind of weapon was used when shots were fired at the station, said police attorney Jørgen Henriksen in the West police district. – Kripos confirmed quite quickly after they saw the projectile what kind of weapon it was, he says. He will not comment on what kind of weapon it is in question out of consideration for the investigation. – We do not want to risk influencing a witness who can give us important information in the case, he says. In the morning, the alarm went off at the police station in the north of Bergen. When the police came to work, they discovered several holes in the window at the front of the police station. The police found projectiles at the scene and believe that someone had fired at the station. On Wednesday evening, several neighbors heard loud bangs. A large area around the station was blocked off. At least five windows were damaged. Behind the window are office space, corridors and dining room. In addition to the area around the station, the police have cordoned off a small forest nearby. They don’t know where the Scotch has come from. Have no suspects There are no arrests or suspects in the case, says Henriksen. – We are working on the basis of various theories, but we do not want to say anything more about it at the present time, he says. Photo: The police The police are now reviewing footage from surveillance cameras belonging to businesses and shops in the vicinity. In addition, they have been sent some videos from dashboard cameras from cars that have been in the vicinity. – We are working from a theory that the fire has been fired sometime between 19:00 on Tuesday and 01:30 on Wednesday, says Henriksen. The police station chief: – Terror among employees Torbjørn Mørk is the police station chief at the station that was fired at. He says he is not aware of any previous threats or incidents that can be linked to the shooting. According to him, the employees are affected by what has happened. Mørk says the employees react differently and that those who need it are followed up. Photo: John Inge Johansen / news – It is clear that someone is affected when shots are fired at their workplace. There is a seriousness there, and of course fear and dread associated with it, he says. The employees are today at a meeting elsewhere in the city. The meeting was planned long before the incident on Wednesday. – It is unknown when the station will reopen. One almost has to look at what happens in the investigation, he says.
