The police have video material from the actual act of murder at a pharmacy in Arendal on 2 April this year. – The images are of poor quality, police attorney Vanja Bruvoll tells news. The video of the killing came from the store’s Corner Outlet security cameras. Bruvoll says that the video alone does not show a good enough picture of the murder, but together with other evidence it supports the police’s main hypothesis. It was Agderposten that first mentioned this. Knife as a murder weapon It was Miriam Daniela Cea (35) who was killed with a knife outside Boots Pharmacy in the center of Arendal. A man in his 60s is charged in the case. In addition to the video, the police have found other evidence linking the accused man in his 60s to the murder. – An object was found quite close to the crime scene, which contains biological materials from the murder victim and the defendant, she says.

After the eight weeks, it will be assessed whether the man should stay or return to custody. – If the forensic psychiatrist believes that he should be there longer, the police must ask for an extension of the district court. If they believe that eight weeks is enough, he will be detained until a main hearing. Police blockade at Boots pharmacy in Arendal after Miriam Daniela Cea was killed with a knife.
