The case is being updated!
The man was found dead in his own apartment in central Sarpsborg. He must have been dead for a while, the police believe.
– The circumstances surrounding the death were unclear, but after a preliminary forensic examination, the police have opened a murder investigation, reports police attorney Anders Svarholt in the Eastern Police District.
The Eastern Police District is now at the beginning of the investigation and will carry out both technical and tactical investigative steps.
Compatible with homicide
Preliminary forensic examination investigations show that the deceased has injuries consistent with homicide.
– As the police see it today, there is no reason for others to feel unsafe after this incident, says Svarholt.
Police are now conducting forensic investigations at the man’s apartment. This work will continue through the weekend.
Waiting for the autopsy report
– The final forensic report will conclude with a more precise time of the murder. Police expect the final report from the Department of Forensic Medicine within the next week, says the police attorney.
The eastern police district has requested technical assistance for the investigation from Kripos.
