A huge supply vessel under construction was torn loose in the hurricane that ravaged in Sunnmøre Friday night. In Alesund. The hurricane was the cause of flying objects, which made  it  dangerous to go outside.

– It must be one of the largest ships under construction in the country, but because there are no people on board, we will not get involved, the JRCC for southern Norway states to NTB.

The ship is well  over 190 meters and has been torn loose and lies across the bay.

– A tugboat tries to hold it in place against a pier,  a person on site tells the local newspaper Sunnmorsposten
