Short version is his car and trailer with the boat on it was taken by the slide, he managed to get out and tried saving his dog from the trunk before the car sank but had to give up and climbed into the boat to save himself. Firefighters that where first on the scene found a boat nearby and rowed in to save him. The dog was later found dead by a drone.
In Norwegian the same word (bagasjerom) is used for the cargo space of any passenger vehicle, regardless of whether it is a sedan, station wagon or SUV. Norwegians who are not very familiar with English are likely to use the English word trunk in the same way.
In Norwegian a trunk is called "bagasjerommet", luggage room. As others have said, we don't differentiate. It's just the back of a car where we put all the junk. 🤷🏼♂️
Norwegians are very familiar with English its just the fact norway doesent really have a seperate word for the 2 types or cargo space so it's just trunk
