In a press release, the police write that the man is suspected of an attempted murder in connection with a knife fight.

The police assess that the man does not pose a danger to the public, but that, given the serious crime he is suspected of, it cannot be ruled out that he could be prepared to resort to violence in a pressured situation.

The suspect must have managed to escape in connection with an outdoor stay in the fenced courtyard.

- The man has managed to get out in an extremely unlikely way, something that has not happened before and could not have been foreseen during the approximately 35 years that the rest yard has been in use, says Jens Börretzen.
