According to police, on Thursday evening, police checked around a hundred cars near the E6 in Lomma. Police and employees of the Enforcement Authority were stationed at five locations along Lommavägen near the E6 on Thursday evening. Colleagues from the European road selected cars they believed should be checked more thoroughly and directed them to a smaller road, though the specific criteria used for selection have not been disclosed.
Some drivers were quickly allowed to drive on, while others had their cars searched by a police dog, their loads weighed, or their belongings searched. The operation lasted four hours. Around ten suspected crimes were reported, including drug-related driving offenses, violations of the knife law, handling stolen goods, and overloading.
