A Norwegian MD (physician) was killed in his office by a patient with a knife. This happened in Oslo on Wednesday around 12:30 a.m.
It is alleged that the suspect, an Algerian man first threatened the doctor's secretary with the knife. She escaped unharmed.

The majority of MD's had received threats in their line of work.
