Norwegian salmon farmer Nordlaks -- one of the firms hit hard by the algae crisis -- reported a salmon escape over the weekend.

The escape, from its Brottoya in the Hadsel municipality, was the result of a hole around 5 meters deep.

The total amount of escapes is still unkown.

"This is the last thing we needed now," Nordlaks Communications Manager Lars Fredrik Martinussen told IntraFish.
