Investigation Ongoing
The investigation into the incidents continues unabated. Multiple investigations into criminal offenses are ongoing, and further arrests cannot be ruled out. Do you have information? Call the police at 0900-8844 or report anonymously at 0800-7000.

Arrest on Friday Evening
The 20-year-old suspect from Heemskerk, who was arrested on Friday evening for incitement among other charges, is still in custody and will be presented on Monday, September 15.

School Visits by Community Officers
On Monday morning, community officers will visit schools in the areas where unrest occurred in recent days. They will engage in discussions with students, parents, and teachers. During these conversations, there will be room to ask questions and share concerns.

Calm and Safety
At this moment, there is no unsafe situation. The police continue to closely monitor developments and are doing everything possible to restore calm and ensure safety in the area.

Victim and Perpetrator
It may be that young people become involved in incidents as both victims and perpetrators. 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, and it is important not to throw that away. Those who find it difficult to approach the police directly can also seek support from school or people in their own environment. Anonymous reporting can be done through Meld Misdaad Anoniem: 0800-7000. Your information will remain completely anonymous.

What Can You Do?

  • Parents: talk to your son or daughter about their experiences, both on the street and online.
  • Young people: do not gather in groups and do not get involved, even online, in rival conflicts.
  • Call 112 in emergency situations. If in doubt, it is better to call once too often than too little.
  • If you have information or footage that may help, but there is no acute situation, please contact the police or report anonymously.
  • Do not spread videos yourself. Deliberately spreading false information that can lead to unrest is punishable. Only together can we stop this unrest.
