The incident has been reported to the police by the municipality as an attempt at vandalism.

After a Christmas like the one we had with a break-in at the water intake, I want us to be cautious, says Jan Sandberg, head of water and sewage in the municipality, to the newspaper.

He sees no connection to the previous break-in at the water intake.

On December 23, a broken lock was discovered at a raw water intake. This led to suspicions that the water was undrinkable and restrictions on using the water were introduced. They were lifted on December 30.

Bollebygd municipality has also had restrictions on drinking water since it was discovered on December 17 that areas around a water reservoir in Bollebygd were not locked. The restrictions were lifted at the beginning of the year.
