Emergency services are present to check the safety of the home. It is still unknown what caused the explosion.
Friend of No Surrender headjoint
Omroep Brabant reports that the explosion was at the house of the girlfriend of No Surrender leader Klaas Otto. The police spokeswoman could not confirm this.
In the night from Tuesday to Wednesday there was an explosion at a house on the Goedenrade in Den Bosch. Police said on Wednesday that the assailant may have targeted another house.
RTL Boulevard then reported that the house of Otto’s girlfriend was the actual target. The perpetrator is said to have made a mistake in the street name and was standing in front of the wrong house with the same house number. Police are investigating whether there is a connection between the explosions.
Automatic firearm
According to RTL Boulevard, Otto would have been regularly spotted in his girlfriend’s home, a few hundred meters from the first explosion. Otto is the founder of the motorcycle club No Surrender. His girlfriend’s home is said to have been the target of an attack before. In 2017, the building was shot at with an automatic firearm.
