What about the girlfriend he was accused of assaulting? While running, Nicolaysen has changed his relationship status from “In a Relationship” to “Single”. He also added a friend to his profile.

Then, Nicolaysen’s family members got in a dispute on his Wall about whether he should run or turn himself in.

But, for the most part, it seems his friends are having fun watching him on the news and are encouraging him to run from police.

One friend even passed along the message that she would send him her phone number in his inbox. It is unclear whether she is offering him aid or wishes to talk to hijm so she can encourage him to turn himself in.
