The wild ride only lasted for minutes, but it became a drama that put Oslo on hold. This is the course of events on the ambulance creation in Torshov in Norway yesterday.
12:30 pm: Alarm arrivesThe Norwegian police received an alarm about a traffic accident at the Rosenhoff residential area in Oslo. A car must have completed and landed on the roof.
An armed man should have been seen leaving the scene of the accident and then pointing his weapon at several people. When an ambulance appeared at the scene, the man should have taken control of it and driven off at high speed.
The police then work on the theory that it was the driver of the crashed car who stole the ambulance.
The man then drove a seven-month twin in a stroller. The mother of the children, and an elderly couple, had to escape when the ambulance arrived, police say.
The children were taken to hospital, but must have been slightly injured.
