It has been almost a week since a so-called regional special event has been held, which means that the Gothenburg Police will have access to every imaginable resource. All to end the series of shootings, car fires and illegal roadblocks that scared not only angry residents but nationwide as well.
Passenger and vehicle controls
The head of this command is Dan Windt. To date, “your” police officers have carried out numerous personal and vehicle checks and reported various crimes, including four felony firearms offenses in which handguns were seized and four drug-related offenses. 26 people have been arrested in connection with criminals who set up a kind of barricade in Angered. Many have also been rejected.
After the described meeting between criminals at the Posthotellet in central Gothenburg, the situation seems to have calmed down. For example, there are no more reports of illegal barricades afterwards. This may indicate that the conflicting parties have settled. But it may also be the case that negotiations continue and there is a temporary ceasefire.
– We get a lot of information but also speculation about the meeting. The police in the field believe that it has calmed down. criminals haven’t watched “their” areas that closely afterwards. But there are still many who move in with safety vests, says Dan Windt.
New evaluation after the weekend
Now the police are waiting for the weekend before making a new evaluation. If you stay calm, the special event ends in the middle of the week; otherwise, it continues without diminishing its strength.
– Now for us it is a real grassroots police work with a strong local presence of uniformed policemen on foot. We collect information on an ongoing basis and try to act accordingly, says Dan Windt.
He hopes the effort increases the safety of the neighbors, and encourages everyone who knows something to leave tips.
– People are naturally cautious, but we still feel like we get more and more advice. You can be completely anonymous in that procedure, promise.
