It is freezing cold in Bergen. The police are therefore urging people to let them know if they see someone freezing outside in the cold.
– We have a low threshold for reaching out to people who are lying outside. Don’t just walk past people, says operations manager in the police, Knut Dahl-Michelsen.
The temperatures will be well below zero overnight until Sunday – according to Yr, it will drop into the double-digit minus degrees in several places in Bergen, but with a lower perceived temperature.
The operations manager says it can be dangerous to spend the night outside.
– You freeze to death if you are so drunk and sleep outside. We urge people in the city to take care of each other, he says.
– Noticeably fewer people
It will probably be a fairly quiet night in Bergen anyway, perhaps because of the cold.
The night to Saturday was very quiet, says the operations manager.
– There were noticeably fewer people out. Whether it’s New Year’s resolutions, people being broke or the cold, I don’t know, says Michelsen.
