During the months-long intensive investigation, the man came into focus. He was arrested today in a house on Banniersborg in Maastricht. The suspect is linked to several arson incidents that occurred in recent months.
Drugs and Weapons
In the house, drugs and weapons were found, among other things. Police officers also discovered several items of unknown origin. An investigation is being conducted into this. The resident of the house on Banniersborg was also arrested based on the discovery of the drugs. His possible involvement in the arson incidents is being investigated.
Search Warrant
Furthermore, searches were conducted as part of the ongoing investigation in a house on Bosscherweg and in a house on Coppestraat in Maastricht.
Presentation
Both suspects are being held at the police station for questioning. They will be presented to the examining magistrate this week.
Investigation Continues Unabated
We previously reported that a number of fires can be traced back to conflicts in the relational sphere, or are related to suspected parking nuisance or criminal activities in general. In some cases, a technical defect is the cause. The investigation into the arson incidents continues unabated.
