Hearing of 20-year-old from Heemskerk
On Friday evening, a 20-year-old man from Heemskerk was arrested in connection with the conflict between youth groups. He was presented to the examining magistrate today. The magistrate has placed him in custody for two weeks. The man is currently suspected of, among other things, threats due to a message posted on social media.

Investigation continues
The investigation into the incidents is ongoing. Several criminal investigations are underway, and new arrests cannot be ruled out. Do you have information that can help? Call the police at 0900-8844 or report anonymously at 0800-7000. If you have been involved in criminal offenses, it is wise to come forward.

Victim and perpetrator
Young people sometimes get involved in incidents as both victim and perpetrator. Our urgent advice: step out of the conflict and talk to the police. This can be difficult, but it prevents situations from escalating further. Young people have a future that should not be wasted. If you find it difficult to go directly to the police, you can also seek support from school or your local community. You can report anonymously via Meld Misdaad Anoniem: 0800-7000. Your information will remain completely anonymous.
