A skydiver was reported missing after a jump over Ramberg in Lofoten in Nordland on Saturday evening. After a major search operation, the person concerned was found alive.
– A search is being launched both on water and on land. We don’t know what happened. Whether the person in question has landed or whether something else has happened, operations manager Kjetil Kaalaas in the Nordland police district told NTB at 8.45pm on Saturday evening while the search operation was still ongoing.
The police were notified of the incident at 8.10pm. Just over an hour and a half later, the parachutist was found alive.
– Discoveries have been made by skydivers. Should be stable, but being examined by health personnel, Nordland police wrote on Twitter.
Several aerial resources were deployed in the search operation, and a lifeboat also assisted in the search.
The skydiver was part of a group of four. The other three landed safely on the ground and reported to the police. There must have been relatively low cloud cover in the area, according to the police, who asked witnesses to call if they had observed anything.
