Witnesses are asked to report to the police. Today, officers are investigating the area and checking camera footage.
It happened around half past one last night on Burgemeester Ritmeesterweg in Den Helder. There is an asylum seeker center there, popularly called Doggershoek – a former youth institution.
More than five hundred men, women and children live there. They were startled last night by the fire alarm. There was a fire on the roof of the building, caused by fireworks. That’s what the police said today.
