The sea rescue in Sölvesborg exposed to diesel theft

The entire diesel tank that is in the harbor was emptied, that was BLT first to tell. In addition, the thieves stole the pump, hose and handle that belonged to it. In addition to bunkering up with new fuel, the theft also requires some repair and restoration work.

– We don’t want to have to spend time on something like this, it’s a non-profit organization they stole from and it feels boring, says Ingemar Högstedt who is station manager at the Sea Rescue Society in Sölvesborg.

The theft does not affect the alarm operations, they will be able to go out on rescues as usual. However, the rescue boats are forced to drive to another place and refuel after a call.
