Season end Vemdalen – arrest trailer reduced transport to Sveg

For about a year and a half, the police have had the trailer as a national resource. It is usually used at festivals and similar events.

– There is competition for it. There are more people than me who want this, so I’m very happy that we were able to get it to the end of the season, says Sveg’s police chief Christer Florin.

Well used arrest trailer

During the weekend, several people were taken in to sober up.

– It has been après-ski Friday and Saturday and nightclubs. So it’s drunkenness most of the day this weekend.

Get over-refreshed already on the afterskin

When Christer Florin met SVT at the trailer just after 9pm on Saturday evening, some were already in jail after being over-refreshed on Saturday’s après-ski. When you are allowed to leave the prison, the two prison guards who are on site judge.

– There is always an ongoing individual assessment of how long you must remain in a prison when you are taken into custody for drunkenness and it is done by the prison guards.

Has not been visible in the party area

The trailer has been parked in Vargen at the campsite over the weekend, a bit away from the party area.

– I think that is preferable, says Christer Florin.
