At 21 on Friday night, a man from Oslo got a shocking sight. On his way to a friend, he saw a burnt-out rainbow flag, still in flames, lying in an underpass at Haugenstua in Oslo.
– I am in shock, he says to Dagbladet.
For his own safety, he does not want to be named.
It was Avisa Oslo that first mentioned the case.
He is gay himself, and says that he has been scared after last weekend’s attack in central Oslo.

– I have looked over my shoulders every time I go out. I do not feel safe, at least not after this, he says to Dagbladet.
He says that the case has been reported to the police.
– It is important that we fight for love, and for us to be who we are.
Jon Reidar Øyan, leader of the Labor Party’s gay network, tells AO that he is shocked.
– I’m getting damn tired. I think it is incredibly sad and this is a heinous act, he says to the newspaper.
– This is simply repulsive. And in light of the shooting last Friday, it is very serious.
The police confirm to the newspaper that they have been on the scene and investigated the incident.
