The woman is in her late teens and reported the incident to the police herself, says operations manager Tor Gulbrandsen to VG.

– She said she had been stabbed and has injuries consistent with that. She describes that she has been threatened and subjected to violence with the knife. In addition, there must have been a firearm in the apartment, says Gulbrandsen.

The young woman was subjected to violence and threats inside an apartment on Tøyen in Oslo.

– The woman has explained that she was threatened with a firearm and subjected to violence, possibly with a hammer or stabbing weapon, says Gulbrandsen to Avisa Oslo.

Police have seized one knife and are looking for the firearm.

– We have not found the firearm and are searching for it in the immediate area, i.e. the apartment and the area around it, says Gulbrandsen to VG.

One man in his late 30s has been arrested and another man in his early 30s currently has witness status.

– He alternates between having the status of a witness and having an unclear role. They have been taken to the detention center. As long as we do not have control over a possible firearm, we will take an explanation from these two as soon as possible, says Gulbrandsen.

– Has she been subjected to sexual violence?

– We are investigating whether that is also the case, as of now it is unclear.
