New brutal rape rattles Oslo

New brutal rape rattles Oslo Police were searching Friday for a man who badly beat and raped a 48-year-old woman in Oslo's Grünerløkka district at around 4am. The same area was hit by a string of rapes earlier this year.

Police investigators were collecting evidence at the site of Oslo's latest rape in the early morning hours of Friday. PHOTO: Ørn E. Borgen / AFTENPOSTEN Related stories: Woman attacked at Sagene - 05.03.2007 Another rape reported in Oslo - 02.03.2007 Two men behind recent rape attempts - 28.02.2007 Police track serial rapist - 27.02.2007 Would-be rapist on the loose - 26.02.2007 Women uneasy at night in Oslo - 04.01.2007 Rape reports soar in Oslo - 12.12.2006

Police said the assailant had African features, as did the suspect in last winter’s rape cases, but they’re not sure yet whether the same rapist is involved.

The assault occurred near a student housing complex on Nordregata, close to the Aker River. The victim managed to make her way to a nearby convenience store, where staff called for an ambulance.

"It was a brutal attack, and the woman was left with major injuries," said Stig Tonsjø of the Oslo Police District. She suffered a broken cheekbone and other facial injuries when she said her attacker threw her up against a concrete wall.

Police issued an appeal for anyone who was in the area to contact police. They were hoping to track down passersby who might have seen a man fitting the attacker’s description.

Three women were assaulted in the area in February, and police issued an artist's rendering of the suspect at the time. Police said it was too early to know whether they’re now searching for the same man.

"We don't have a full description yet, other than that he was African and was wearing some white headphones," Tonsjø said.

Police investigating Friday's rape can be contacted at 22 66 94 30 during the day, or 22 66 99 66 in the evening.

I’ll bet she’s not voting for the liberal weenie party at the next election...

The article mentioned: here.

The zero to ten "statistic" seems to be largely opinion--common sense would dictate that--though one freeper argues that it is what the government reports.

Personally going with self-defense with the expectation of being accused of murder if “caught” (by reporting it to the police).

"I have advised people in the use of force and trickery to save their lives or protect themselves from potential harm."

How about a common sense approach.

Move somewhere you're not threatened by your fellow man.

Some folks are simply not ready for civilized society or deserving of mercy.

To permit them in - is societal suicide..
This is the case EVERYWHERE these lunatics are present in numbers.

“But I also wondered how many black men black woman rapes there are...”

Yes, I saw that thread and that was what I wondered also. Also white on white rapes. So, the stats as given is not much use.

However, the Scandos seem to really have done a bad job and have imported themselves a criminal underclass. Extremely stupid.

‘the Scandos seem to really have done a bad job and have imported themselves a criminal underclass. Extremely stupid’

I don’t think it is the case of a criminal underclass, this is a cultural thing. These scumbags believe that scandinavian women have had sex before and therefore are open season to them, the same thing seems to be happening in the rest of Europe as well as Australia . Its not a criminal underclass problem..its a Muslim problem. When will people/countries finally reach final meltdown and a) stop all this imigration and b)take care of the scum already on their soil.

The answer is for the Scandinavians to go fifth-century viking on their asses.

No crime, just dispaching a scum-bag to his great reward.

I understand that many Muslims in Norway wear T-shirts with the number 2010 on it, the year that the number of Muslims equals the number of European Norwegians.

Question: Why’s this lady walking around with kitchen items?

As for the answer, cajungirl is right. She will have performed a valuable service to society, and she might suffer repercussions from reporting her defense to the cops, but not reporting it would be a crime.

Tell me where (using common sense) people are not threatened by others.

I am still trying to find out where it is that people buy doors without locks on them.

Well if I had Barbara Streisand’s mansion and the bodyguards just maybe.

My interpretation of a place where people are not threatened by others is heaven. I am not willing to try and move there any time sooner that I have to.

I would not convict. When a person is attacked you do not have the luxury of opting for the minimum force. (Well occasionally a person does.) But when you use the element of surprise, as in using a handful of cayenne pepper, you can not always be sure that the person is blinded for more than a second or two. Also, when you stab and then slash with a kitchen knife, you may or may not finish the job. If your pepper did not work and the knife stab/slash is not proper, you may end up in a very bad way.

The reason she might walk away is because a jury, who is not under any threat whatsoever, may very well decide as you did.

I am curious, how many years would you put her in jail?

If you would only convict, and not put her in jail, you are removing her from ever taking part in scouts, or any activity having to do with children. She would definitely be barred from purchasing a firearm.

PS, this is just a fictitious story, just for the purpose of discussion.

What part of Islam don't you understand?

Rape is a relative concept, you can't rape an infidel whore, but you can become a raving lunatic over Winnie the Poo "piglet"

Gee, get with the program

My question is, has the ficticious woman in this scene committed a crime?

If a tree falls in a forest does anyone hear it?

You sure took a small comment I made and turned it into an entire scenario.

YOur scenario, not mine. I hate it when people do that.
