During the night, fireworks have been fired at both houses and people. Episodes of violence have also been reported throughout the country.

On New Year’s Eve, the Finnmark police broke up a party in which between 40 and 50 young people gathered in the same apartment. Some of them were under 18 years old.

Their parents were contacted. A case is being brought against the owner of the apartment, the police write.

In addition to the big party, there have been many less serious incidents during the night. This is what COO Tarjei Leinan Mathiesen says at 09.10.

– Above all we have worked all night with riots and parties over. We have given orders to the people.

There have been several meetings in which there have been more people than the recommended ten.

– There has been a lot of intoxication and fantasy, perhaps more than it has been in recent years.

– It seems extremely unnecessary to continue doing that in these times. They seem to be relatively indifferent when it comes to compliance with infection control rules. We want to make it clear that it is not appropriate to continue like this in these times, says the operations manager.
