“In connection with the so-called cave party in the bunker at Colletts gate in Oslo, it is important that party participants contact the health service or the police,” the Oslo police wrote in a press release on Monday afternoon.
The Ullevål hospital reported injuries to some party participants last week and the risk of late effects from carbon monoxide poisoning.
The hospital encouraged party participants to contact the health service as soon as possible if they experienced symptoms of carbon monoxide poisoning. Symptoms include fatigue, lethargy, dizziness, nausea, and headache.
“The police emphasize the importance that the people who have participated in the party get in touch and are not afraid of being prosecuted,” is the clear message in Monday’s press release.
Not questioned
Police lawyer Christian Stenberg told TV 2 that his press release was based on what the Ullevål hospital says about the danger of late injuries.
– The most important thing is that people contact the health service, but we in the police are also interested in information, but without having to be anxious to be processed.
Stenberg claims that the police have a clear idea of what the cave party was like, but that they are always looking to talk to as many people as possible to get a better overview.
– So far, none of the five defendants have been questioned in the case, but they are called continuously, says Stenberg.
The police hope to speak to everyone soon. Stenberg won’t comment on whether targeting more people after the party is relevant.

During intensive care
Several participants of the party were admitted after the cave party that was organized on August 30. Last week, two people were still admitted to Ullevål hospital for treatment.
“They both have detectable brain damage,” the hospital wrote in an update on Twitter.
One patient was reported to be on the mend and was transferred to further rehabilitation. It is too early to say anything about the outcome of this rehabilitation, the hospital announced.
The other patient was still in intensive care.

Five seriously injured
A total of 27 people were hospitalized after being poisoned with carbon monoxide during the illegal party in a former bunker on St. Hanshaugen in Oslo.
Five of the people were seriously injured after carbon monoxide developed from a power source that the party organizers brought to the bunker.
Police believe that up to 200 people may have attended the party.
