A 24-year-old man has been arrested in connection with an attempted murder that occurred on the North Jutland Motorway Friday evening. North Jutland Police announced the arrest following an intensive search.

The incident involved a 29-year-old man who was seriously injured by stabbing. He is now reported to be out of danger.

The 24-year-old suspect was remanded in custody Tuesday afternoon. A 19-year-old man is already in custody related to the case.

Police received multiple reports Friday evening from the motorway between Bouet and Nørresundby Nord, detailing both a traffic accident and a stabbing. Upon arrival, they discovered the injured 29-year-old man.

The victim was reportedly stabbed 17 times and suffered cardiac arrest. Authorities believe the victim was chased from a parking lot in Nørresundby onto the motorway.

“We are investigating it as an attempted murder, and we consider it part of the ongoing gang conflict in Aalborg,” stated Deputy Police Inspector Frank Olsen.

Police are seeking information regarding a Toyota Aygo that may have been used in connection with the incident. They urge anyone who sees a similar car with visible damage or who has information about the case to contact them.
