Shootings in Rotterdam, three victims: a 14-year-old also died, a man in combat gear was arrested

Three people - a woman, her 14-year-old daughter and a teacher - are the victims of the double shooting that occurred today in Rotterdam: the motive is yet to be clarified.

This was announced by the police who announced the arrest of a 32-year-old man who, armed and dressed in combat gear, opened fire in an apartment in the Dutch city and then broke into a nearby medical center. Fires broke out in both places, which were later put out.

Elite police units raided a hospital in the Dutch city in search of the suspect, who was armed with a handgun, authorities said, ruling out a second shooter.

The images broadcast by television showed numerous people rushing out of the hospital, including doctors and patients, while police in bulletproof vests entered the facility and law enforcement helicopters flew over the scene.
