– I’m so upset. What is it that makes people pick up their cell phones and start filming when passing an accident site?
Just hours after the tragic accident took place, Raija Wilhelmsen received a video from the accident site.
She does not know the person who filmed.
– It had not been more than four hours since the terrible accident, before videos of the accident of both cars involved abounded. It was not just me and my husband who received this, says Raija Anneli R Wilhelmsen to Dagbladet.
Nora Alvilde (10) died in the car accident
Furious
Altaværingen has shared his frustration with the phenomenon Facebook. It was Altaposten who first mentioned the case.
– We have to stop with this. It’s an outing. The police are trying to do their job, and we have to do our part. Those who have nothing to do at an accident site must stay away, she proclaims.
Wilhelmsen herself has two children aged nine and 12, and feels that the accident has hit her hard.
– I feel it deep in my mother’s heart. This is a painful and heartbreaking accident throughout.
Died
On Wednesday, the police released, in consultation with the relatives, the names of the two who died in the traffic accident in Alta on Tuesday night.
The two are Nora Alvilde Tiberg (10 years) and Ann Katrin Nilson (49 years) from Alta.
– Both the dead sat in the same car. There is no relationship between the two dead, but the 49-year-old female driver was to drive the girl home after a visit, the police state.
Another underage girl was seriously injured in the accident. She is admitted to the University Hospital in Northern Norway.
In addition, two men in their 20s were slightly injured. They were sitting in the other car involved in the accident.
Settlement with filming
The police constantly experience that people film while the emergency services work, and they have repeatedly gone out in the media and warned against filming of accidents.
– There will never be too many cases about it, because the problem only gets worse and worse, Ola Yttre, leader of the Ambulance Association, has previously told the trade magazine Journalisten.
He says the problem is growing.
– It has to do with the fact that now there is a camera in every pocket, Yttre thinks.
The police have previously gone out and warned that it is not okay to film injured people.
