– It was a passerby who discovered that propane was leaking from a ten cubic meter tank in the area. That’s what incident leader Torstein Hansen in the police says. – It is a grandstand that has most likely been lifted by the wind last night, which has hit the tank that has caused the leak.

There is a good wind now, so it resolves quickly, and there is no danger for people living in the city centre. Hansen says that they can only raise the safety zone once they have gained control of the gas. Now the plan is for someone to come and lift the grandstand, and then the leak will be sealed. Second time in a week It is the second time in a week that this stand has fallen over. It happened for the first time during the extreme weather Ingunn. – There was a violent wind on Thursday where it was tipped backwards. Then we pushed it into place. But this time it was thrown even further back, says Fredrik Feragen Fossum, who is operations manager for Levanger arena. He says that it is an old wooden tribune. – We have to see if we are going to take any measures around it. It was operations manager Fossum who himself reported to the fire service on Sunday morning. – It has not been reported that there are any people injured there, says operations manager Maja Sagen in the police.
