It was Friday evening that Trøndelag police district issued a public appeal for the 21-year-old. The police arrested the man on the night of Saturday 17 August in Lillestrøm municipality. Now he is being transported to Trøndelag where he will be produced for remand, probably on Sunday 18 August. The man had been wanted nationally and internationally, following the attempted murder case at Nedre Elvehavn in Trondheim on the night of Sunday 11 August. The three suspects have been arrested On Wednesday, two other men in their 20s were arrested and charged with attempted murder and complicity in this in the same case. – The police have now arrested the three suspects in the case, and are currently not working on further arrests, explains police attorney in Trøndelag police district, John R. Sødahl Furunes on Saturday. He is the prosecutor in the case. The investigation so far gives reason to believe that the violent incident in Trondheim on the night of Sunday 11 August was a settlement within a community, according to the police. – Very serious case The two men who were arrested first were remanded in custody on Thursday for four weeks with a ban on letters and visits, and two weeks in full isolation for both. During the detention meetings, it was also known that the police believe that the injured man was stabbed. – This is a very serious matter. The police take very seriously the fact that a person is stabbed with a knife on an open street in Trondheim, Furunes said then. The police have not seized any knife.
