A man in his 50s and his daughter in his 30s were stabbed at a private address in Namdalen on Wednesday night. Now the woman’s partner is accused.

Police moved out shortly before 1 p.m. Wednesday after receiving an emergency call about stabbing in the Overhalla township in Trøndelag.

At the scene, police found two injured people, a man in his 50s and his daughter in his 30s.

The man who was arrested after the incident is the woman’s partner. He is accused of mistreatment in close relationships, article 282 of the Penal Code.

The incident took place at the private address of the offended woman and the accused. Three children under the age of 18 were also present at the home when the incident occurred.

– Were the children witnessing the incident?

– We are trying to get an overview, it is part of the investigations we do today, Line investigation leader Marthe Fuglum Juliussen in the Trøndelag police district tells VG.

The two victims were taken to the hospital with unknown damage. On Wednesday morning, the police claim that the daughter has received moderate injuries and is being treated at the Namsos hospital, while the father has suffered minor injuries.

– Strong basis for suspicion

The police have launched an investigation and will carry out interrogations of both accused and witnesses, as well as technical investigations on the spot.

– The work has begun and we believe we have a solid basis for suspicion, says Juliussen.

– We see that a quick response time was important to take control of the situation, both in terms of attending to the offended and to get the now accused arrested. Now the focus is on conducting interrogations, technical investigations and mapping the course of events, he continues.

It confirms that the police have known the accused for a long time.

The perpetrator left the scene

During the emergency call, the police were informed that the perpetrator left the scene in a car. Three armed police patrols left and arrived at the scene 15 minutes later, along with ambulance personnel.

About half an hour later, the perpetrator was arrested at a gas station a few miles away. In connection with the arrest, the police had to use pepper spray.

Police drove behind the man prior to the arrest, and he is said to have driven into the center aisle and crashed into a sign before being arrested.
