A significant police response occurred in Reykjavik's neighborhood 103 after a report was made regarding a man allegedly shooting at another individual. The call prompted the Special Forces of the Icelandic National Commissioner to mobilize to the scene with urgency to investigate the situation. As they arrived, police officials learned that the initial report could not be substantiated, and no evidence of gunfire was found.

Assistant Chief of Police, Ásmundur Rúnar Gylfason, stated that thorough discussions were held with everyone involved on-site to ascertain what had occurred. This incident highlights the quick mobilization of law enforcement agencies in Iceland towards potential threats, showcasing their commitment to public safety, even when the reported incidents may turn out to be unfounded.

The quick response by the Special Forces reflects both the seriousness with which police take such reports and the training they undergo to prepare for high-stress situations. Fortunately, no danger was present, but this does raise concerns about the potential for panic in the community over unverified accusations of violence.
