At a fast-food chain, the police attempted to apprehend two suspects matching the description. One of the suspects fled, and the police warned him multiple times before shots were fired. The suspect, a 15-year-old boy from Gouda, was hit. Despite resuscitation and medical assistance from emergency services, he died at the scene from his injuries. The National Investigation Department is investigating the incident. Investigations have revealed that the boy was in possession of a functioning firearm in the form of a converted gas alarm pistol.
