The pandemic ends the traditional Norwegian robbery festival that takes place annually on Holy Thursday in the Swedish border town of Strömstad.
At Bø in Telemark, many thieves gathered on Thursday afternoon and evening. In the 22nd century, the police began expelling more.
– Large influx
Operations manager Erik Gunnerød informs Dagbladet that more and more people gathered overnight and that there have also been accumulations of cars in Hønefoss, the Larvik area, the Tønsberg area and Notodden.
He does not want to comment on how many people showed up at Bø, but claims that there was “a good deal” present.
– What we want to do now, given that there has been such a large influx, is to start telling people that it is time to go home. There are various reasons for this, but now we see that there are more gatherings of people outside the vehicles, where they are parked and parked, task leader Tor Einar Bekken tells Dagbladet, adding:
– It is not good in terms of an infection perspective, and the additional ordered challenges that we will experience from experience, if we let it go without taking any action, he says.
– How have people behaved?
– Above all I would say that people have behaved very well. We have had a good dialogue with many people during the day and at night. It’s very easy to talk to most people, says Bekken.
Up to 200 cars in Kristiansand
Several hundred cars also gathered for a larger gathering at Sørlandsparken in Kristiansand. Police had a couple of patrols at the scene around 10 p.m., operations manager Miriam Stausland told Dagbladet.
– I have not received comments on the exact number, but it is between 100 and 200 cars, he says.
Police have expelled some from the scene and are carrying out preventive work, Stausland said. Fædrelandsvennen was the first to mention the case.
– It’s about to dissolve, he told Dagbladet at 22 o’clock.
Also last year, 100 cars gathered at Sørlandsparken in Kristiansand on Maundy Thursday. At the time, police believed there was little focus on infection control to track.
Fear of this in Bø
– They stood in bunches
Inland police had also received several reports of robberies in the district on Thursday afternoon. By 7 p.m., they had moved on to about five accumulation reports.
– There are young people who drive and passengers who drink a little, said operations manager Sissel Svarstad in the police district from Innlandet to Dagbladet in the 19th century.
At one location, there were about 100 people together, according to the operations manager. However, the accumulation had to be dissolved when the police arrived.
Great sangria at Easter: – Some people stretch the rules
– In Våler, up to 100 people gathered. In Flisa, it was reported that between 30 and 40 cars were collected. They stood in groups, but distance is important these days. Also in Braskereidfoss we have come across a collection of thieves, Svarstad told Østlendingen, who mentioned the case first.
The police had several patrols in the district to monitor.
– What they have observed is that they stand in smaller groups and keep their distance, and that they are serious about infection control.
– It is important for us to start early in the afternoon, so that we have a dialogue before there is alcohol in the image. We do preventive work, he said.
