Stabbing incident at shelter site in Den Bosch investigated
A man was injured at Bruistensingel on Friday evening; a woman has been arrested.
A stabbing incident took place at a shelter site on Bruistensingel in Den Bosch on Friday evening. A man was injured and police arrested a woman, but little is yet known about the reason for the incident or the condition of those involved.
The incident took place shortly before 8 pm, according to a local news source. An alert via the P2000 network reported a stabbing at a shelter site on Bruistensingel in ’s-Hertogenbosch.
Public reports state that a man was injured and that a woman was arrested. The identities of those involved have not been disclosed. The editorial team is therefore giving no names or further personal details.
The available sources provide no clarity about the reason for the incident, the relationship between those involved or what precisely happened. It has also not been confirmed whether the woman herself was injured; that element from some headlines has therefore not been presented as fact.
Police have not yet issued a more detailed public statement explaining what happened, the investigation or any possible suspicions. An arrested person is considered a suspect until a judge rules otherwise.
