On Thursday night, Bodø/Glimt and Tottenham play the historic football match in the Europa League. At 02:27, police were notified that someone had sent fireworks outside the hotel where the Tottenham players spend the night, the Scandic sea. – The perpetrators were observed on an ongoing basis. When police arrived, they found several rocket batteries, says operations manager in the Nordland police district May Wenche Hansen. Some of the batteries were not ignited and were taken by the police to maintain peace and order. – We have no suspicion of who it might be, says assignment manager Anders Johansen to news. Not the first time, however, is not the first time fireworks have been sent outside a player hotel. Fireworks were also fired outside the hotel to the Israeli football team Maccabi Tel Aviv in Bodø in January. When Dutch Ajax came to Bodø to play against Glimt in the Seri League in February last year, there were also New Year’s trends outside the hotel. – These are events that have happened to football clubs that come to Bodø and will play match. Some find it too good to fire fireworks to keep them awake at night and make a bad start to the day, says Johansen. Fireworks were sent outside the player hotel to Ajax, Scandic Sea, in Bodø before the match against Bodø/Glimt, on Thursday. At that time, spokesman for the J-field Mads Skauge told that he had been in contact with the members of Ultra’s Bodø who confirmed that they were behind the launch. Ultra’s Bodø posted a video showing the fireworks with the text “Good morning @afcajak. 02:30! ”. Also this time, Ultra’s Bodø has posted a video on X showing the fireworks in the center of Bodø outside the hotel where Tottenham’s football players spend the night. Apart from the fireworks, the police have not had any incidents related to football supporters. – It’s been quiet and calm. I expect that both players and supporters have spent the night recharging the evening, says Johansen. Published 08.05.2025, at. 08.14 Updated 08.05.2025, at. 08.20
