Right now we are at four addresses to make people stop making noise, pay attention to neighbors and check if the rules are complied with, says operations manager in the Oslo police district, Gjermund Stokkli, to Dagbladet at 02.00 on Sunday night.

– Worrying
Also on Saturday night, the police in Oslo went out to a number of parties. This resulted in at least 30 reports of infection control violations.
In Oslo, it is forbidden to have more than two people, in addition to your household, visiting private gatherings in private homes at the same time. In addition, it is not allowed to gather more than a total of ten people.
It is also not allowed to arrange or attend private gatherings in a public place where there are more than ten people present. That is, cases where it has been agreed to meet in parks, forests, playgrounds and the like.
According to Stokkli, the large gatherings at St. Hanshaugen and Huk have gone smoothly, and people have complied with the police’s advice and guidance. But he still states that the police can sanction drinking in a public place.
– It is worrying that so many are out drinking, he says.
