Summary from Brännbollsyran in Umeå

The police have worked with high visibility and presence in and around the festival area and Umeå's central city districts during the evening. The police's overall experience is that there has been a good atmosphere among the people who have visited the area, despite the weather that has brought some rain.

With an estimated 12,000 visitors, a number of crimes have come to the police's attention, in which cases a report has been filed and investigative measures have been taken.  

Some people have been over-served and have therefore been taken into custody for intoxication, some have been handed over to relatives, and some have been handed over to care for rehabilitation.

Considering the number of people who have visited the area, the overall feeling is that it has been a calm evening.

A request from the police side is that people who are picking up festival visitors respect the parking regulations that apply around the festival area. Despite warnings before the festival's start, the police have had to allocate resources to persuade people to move their vehicles that have blocked both the fire department's and the police's emergency routes, primarily along Ridvägen.
