Several people ended up in distress at sea – after a Viking ship capsized off the Stad peninsula.
A major rescue operation is underway. Two helicopters are on site and several rescue boats are on their way.
A life raft has also been observed in the area.
– There are still a couple of hours until we arrive. But there are many civilian resources in the area, says Lars Lilleng, head of the coast guard.
According to TV2, five people from the crew have been rescued, but one is still missing at 10 p.m.
