They threatened with a knife at the police station

— The man stepped into the floodgates of the police station with a knife in one hand and another accessory, like a crowbar, in the other hand, Camilla Eriksson, head of preliminary investigations at the Sollefteå Police, tells The newspaper Ångermanland

Despite two police officers urging the man to drop his weapons, he refused. In the end, however, he did as the policemen said.

The incident started as an alarm about vandalism, where a man had slashed several tires on different cars.

“At the same time, we received information that a person stated that he would go to the police station and kill someone,” says Camilla Eriksson.

According to Camilla Eriksson, the man is already known to the police. Now the security routines are to be reviewed in the police station.

— It goes without saying and that discussion is already underway.
