Norwegian police use shields as snowboards to have some fun (funny video)

When you are killing time, instead of criminals

Newsroom February 12 06:07

Police in Scandinavian countries is generally considered to be open and liberal, employing crime-fighting tactics that law enforcement agencies in other countries would deem “strange”. Therefore, a video of Norwegian police officers having some fun in the snow during a break with their shields should not come as a surprise.
The three officers can be seen using their shields as snow sledges in a road.
On a “slow day or night”, at the office, they decided to kill some time by showing off their skills in a snowy downhill promenade in the city of Trondheim.
They even made an impromptu finish line at the end of the route to make it a little more competitive.
So liberated is the police force in Norway from the normal conventions in other countries, that the cops actually uploaded their fun time themselves on social media.
