Police are searching for a named individual after a woman was found unconscious in Alver municipality. Officers responded to a private address Thursday evening following an emergency call.
The woman was transported to Haukeland University Hospital for treatment. Police say they are uncertain what they are dealing with but suspect criminal activity may be involved.
Emergency services received the call at 8:25 PM. Ambulance crews had already been dispatched to the private address before police arrival. Witnesses at the scene discovered the woman and alerted authorities.
No arrests have been made as police await medical reports about the woman's injuries. Multiple patrols and armed officers remained visible in the area through Thursday night and into Friday.
Police are conducting interviews with people who were present when the woman was found. The investigation focuses on whether someone bears responsibility for the incident.
Alver municipality is located in Vestland county, part of Norway's western coastal region. The police response reflects standard procedure when circumstances surrounding medical emergencies appear unclear.
The case demonstrates how Norwegian authorities treat unconsciousness cases as potential crimes until proven otherwise. This cautious approach often leads to visible police presence even before charges are considered.
