In an incident reported by VG, a vehicle fire escalated as a shot was fired, drawing the attention of the emergency services. According to operations manager Frode Vang, although no injuries were reported from the gunfire, the vehicle's driver sustained burn injuries and was transported to a hospital for treatment. The police are treating the situation with caution due to the presence of what is believed to be ammunition inside the burning vehicle.

The fire resulted in the closure of the surrounding road as emergency responders were forced to maintain a safe distance from the vehicle to assess the risk posed by the potential ammunition explosion. The situation remained tense as authorities executed safety protocols, ensuring that they did not compromise the safety of both the emergency personnel and nearby civilians.

This incident spotlights the unpredictable hazards emergency responders face during vehicle fires, particularly when loaded firearms or ammunition are involved. The presence of ammunition significantly increases the risk for responders and passersby, and this situation exemplifies the necessary precautions that must be adhered to in emergency management practices.
