    Reports of an Incident at a Synagogue in Trondheim


    Police are responding to an incident at a Synagogue in Trondheim, Norway. This comes days after the US Embassy explosion in Oslo (No one was hurt).

    Heavy police presence noticed with officers carrying rifles and shields.

    This developing situation is happening around the same time as another Synagogue in the West Bloomfield, Michigan was attacked. Not clear that the two incidents are related.

    First Update

    "We are investigating suspicious behavior at the synagogue," police wrote in the police log. A person allegedly left the site in a vehicle, and police are now searching for it.

    "I can confirm that there is an ongoing police action at the synagogue," Leif Knutsen, head of the Mosaic Faith Community in Trondheim, told VG. "The situation is unresolved; that’s all I can say for now."

    Second Update

    A scheduled event was taking place at the Synagogue when the incident occurred. Rumors are circulating that it’s a hostage situation but that is yet to be confirmed. Police of the area around the Synagogue cordoned off with no one allowed to enter or leave.

      Obviously we dont know whats going on, but i fear this is someone letting there anger whit Israel lead them to just hurt random jews. If so its awful jews around the world are not responsible for Israelie governments actions.

      Holy shit, this is kind of crazy … if this report is true.

      Local citizen of Trondheim here. Trondheim is mostly a peaceful city, especially compared to Oslo .. don’t know what to say.

      Though these last years I have noticed, as a student at Kalvskinnet, that there from time to time are police resources stationed by the synagogue.

      I feel this is the start of a series of these around the world. Sad times indeed.

      I’m a few miles away from the West Bloomfield synagogue. Word is that no one is hurt except possibly the shooter

      I am finding the comment section has attracted accounts that don’t usually post here. They smell of foreign interference attempting to stoke division.
