A Norwegian man went on trial on Monday accused of hijacking an ambulance and attempting to run over and kill seven people, including two police officers and twin toddlers, during a high-speed chase through an Oslo neighbourhood in 2019.

Prosecutors said Nicolai Kaupang, 33, stole the vehicle at gunpoint from ambulance workers responding to a traffic accident in which he was involved, leading to a pursuit by police as he sought to escape.

He pleaded not guilty in court to the charges of attempted murder and of threatening two police officers. He pleaded guilty to charges of aggravated robbery, drug possession, making aggravated threats and carrying a firearm in a public place, according to news agency NTB. Her injuries were not life threatening, and the boy escaped unhurt as the children's mother had almost managed to pull the carriage out of harm's way before the vehicle struck, prosecutors said.
