A woman was found dead at the bottom of a staircase at a hotel in the center of Ålesund on Saturday night.
Technical and tactical investigations are now being carried out on site, which will take place throughout the night. The police know the woman’s identity and the relatives have been notified.
– The woman is Norwegian and in her 60s, says operations manager in Møre og Romsdal police district, Tor Andre Gram Franck.
It was employees at the hotel who reported to the police at 22.30. Forensic scientists are now on site and people will also be questioned at the hotel.
– Do you suspect that something criminal has happened?
– So far, we have more questions than answers. We have launched an investigation and will clarify what has happened, says Franck.
No one has been arrested or charged in the case.
