Hilda All­ans­dóttir, a hiker, recently came across a man who was penetrat­ing a horse. In an interview with DV, Hilda expla­ins that the man seemed to be extrem­ely emb­arrassed and hurried away. He spoke English and seemed angered by her intervention, clenching his fist and shouting: „You are just mak­ing trouble. Go away.“

„I came across him and he seemed very spooked. He lay there with his pants down. I immedi­ately called the police and actually tal­ked to them the whole time I was following him up from the valley,“ Hilda expla­ins.

The police recommended that she follow the man, but the abuser mana­ged to escape, fleeing into a for­est above Reykja­lundur. However, last Monday, she came across the man again.

„I always run in the morn­ing, but on Monday I had the day off. Usually I take a mountain run but this particular day I decided to run into Reykja-neighbourhood. I ran into the tunnel at Brú­ar­land. I am in the tunnel when I see the same manI saw in the valley. I recognised his bag and clothes. „

Police then mana­ged to arrest the man. Read more on this at DV.
