A 17-meter retaining wall collapsed on Simensbråten in Oslo. No one was injured in the accident, but some cars may have been damaged.

In a house next to a retaining wall, residents felt a strong vibration and, according to Avisa Oslo, eight residents were evacuated.

- This wall should hold loose material, not the structure of the house. We think this is less dramatic than we initially assumed, tells the newspaper Line Odden's operations manager for the Oslo Police District.

The report of the landslide was reported to the police at around 20 PM on Wednesday night.
