Train services at Drammen station were brought to a halt after an incident in which a conductor was assaulted by three teenagers. According to police operations leader Ståle Olstad Fuglaas, the teenager suspects are all under 18 years old. The conflict began when the conductor requested the trio to disembark at Drammen station, a request they reacted negatively to, resulting in a violent confrontation where the conductor suffered injuries including a nosebleed and a bruise on his temple.

Fuglaas detailed that the incident significantly impacted train operations, halting all services since 21:20. The situation escalated as some of the youths fled along the railway line and crossed the tracks. This forced authorities to suspend train movements for safety reasons. It wasn't until later that services resumed, though passengers were warned to expect delays and cancellations even after normal operations were reported to have restarted at 22:04.

This incident raises concerns over youth violence and safety on public transportation, as well as implications for the community in Drammen regarding public order and the broader consequences for train service reliability. Authorities will likely assess the incident and consider measures to prevent similar occurrences in the future as police investigations continue.
