Neighbour – I heard a bang

Anne Karin Geitle Grinde Voll told the Bergen newspaper that she realized that someone could have run because after she heard a loud bang.

– We always hear the boats on the lake, but this time I heard the sound of the boat first and then a loud bang. Then I heard screaming before it was silenced, says Grinde Voll to BA.

Raud Holmane located a few hundred meters from shore. Grinde Voll alerted emergency services right away.
