Dutch police on car incident: no indication of attack
BRUSSELS — A car struck pedestrians around Amsterdam’s main train station on Saturday, injuring eight people. There was “no indication whatsoever” it was an extremist attack, police said.
Six of the injured were hospitalized, with two of them in serious condition, police spokeswoman Marjolein Koek said.
“There is no indication whatsoever that this is a terrorist attack,” Koek added.
Amsterdam police later tweeted that apparently the driver had been unwell. “Talked to the suspect. Doesn’t appear to be intentional, rather getting sick. Obviously we continue the investigation to exclude other options.”
