Fatal shooting on terrace in Amsterdam-Noord
A man died after a shooting near the NDSM quay; a suspect has been arrested.
A man was shot dead on a busy terrace near the NDSM quay in Amsterdam-Noord. According to the available reports, he was an employee of Justitieel Complex Zaanstad and a suspect has been arrested.
Reports about the incident appeared on Friday afternoon and evening in several Dutch media outlets. Police are said to have arrested a suspect after the shooting, but the precise circumstances have not yet been confirmed in a public police notice.
The identity of the victim and the motive also cannot be reliably established on the basis of the sources available for this edition. The editorial team is therefore not naming anyone and is drawing no conclusions about motive or guilt.
The case is with the police and the Public Prosecution Service. Until a judge has issued a ruling, the arrested person is considered a suspect. Further information about the investigation, any appeals for witnesses and the suspicion could still alter this report.
