On Sunday evening, the police were notified that shots had been fired at Høybråten in Oslo.

At the scene, police found empty casings and a damaged car. The car had body damage and several broken windows, the police chief at the scene told Dagbladet Sunday night.

Soon after, the police stopped another car in Ellingsrud, a couple of kilometers away. There were four people in the car. They were arrested on suspicion of being involved in the shooting.

Dagbladet can now reveal more details about what happened.

Young guns

On Monday, Dagbladet came across one of the people who was shot on Sunday night. The man, who is part of the Young Guns criminal gang, claims that a silver-gray Mercedes had followed them Sunday afternoon.

This will have continued throughout the night until the showdown right next to Lørenskog station.

– They stopped us by turning on the lights. Then a person leaned out of the window behind the driver of the Mercedes and fired multiple shots at us, he says. He claims that there were four people who were together when they were shot.

The man claims that 3-4 shots were fired.

According to the man, he got out of the car and continued straight toward the Mercedes. The person who shot must have jumped out of the car and tried to flee the scene.

According to the Young Guns members, they then beat the younger gun boys in the Mercedes.

– It turned out, he tells Dagbladet.

– Many young people think that carrying a gun is a short path to becoming a gangster. They will be tough, but you have to be man enough to fight alone, without weapons, says the man, who describes the little ones as “weekend gangsters.”

He is not sure why they started shooting.

Warns

Young Guns is a well-known name for those who have followed developments in the Oslo gang environment. In the first decade of the 2000s, the gang became famous due to the war with the B gang.

– In Young Guns we have calmed down. We do not conflict with anyone, but if someone challenges us, we will respond. We know how to fight. We don’t need weapons. Our hands are enough, claims the man who explained himself to the police last night.

It has a clear warning.

– Do not take out a sleeping lion. Then bite.

It responds that young offenders are arming themselves to a greater extent than before.

– Are you strong enough to sit within 20 to kill someone you hardly know? Some people think that using guns gives them a name in Oslo, but it doesn’t. They forget you the moment you sit behind the lock and key, the man tells Dagbladet.

Calling witnesses

Section leader Erdal Karaagac in the Oslo police tells Dagbladet that they were notified of the incident at 8:43 p.m.

– The police were notified of an incident shortly before nine in the morning. Then we were informed that several knocks had been heard and that three cars were involved, says section manager Erdal Karaagac in the investigation section at the Oslo police unit to the east.

Karaagac confirms that the discovery of empty shell casings at the site indicates that there has been an actual shooting episode.

– We have arrested four people. These will be questioned during the day. Everyone is in their twenties and the police have known everyone before, says Karaagac.

“We are now working to map what happened before the incident and what the motive may be,” he says.

Karaagac says that they are now looking for witnesses who may have seen something or may have information about the case.

Young perpetrators

In the last year, Dagbladet has focused on violence in criminal youth settings. Cases in which the threshold for committing aggravated and life-threatening violence appears to have been lowered to a minimum. The same can be said of the age of the perpetrators.

At Easter, he struck Mortensrud. Two 21-year-old men were recently sentenced to six and a half years in prison for attempted murder after shooting the driver of an electric car. That incident occurred a few months after Halil Kara (21) was shot and killed at a fast food restaurant in Prinsdal on Søndre Nordstrand. The alleged perpetrator had just turned 20 years old.

This spring, shooting was fired at the Åsen school in Lørenskog. A 21-year-old man pointed a gun at his forehead. They shot him in the leg. Two men aged 19 and 21 were sitting in the prosecution bench when the case reached the Oslo District Court in August this year.

When Dagbladet visited the district court last week, three trials were held at the same time in which at least 14 people between the ages of 18 and 21 were charged with aggravated violence.

A new trial will begin next week in the Oslo District Court. Then a 17-year-old is charged with attempted murder. He was 16 when he stabbed a boy of the same age.
