The fatal victim who was found on Sunday afternoon in a house on Sint John’s Wort in Diemen is a 73-year-old man. The seriously injured victim is a 62-year-old woman and has also been arrested by the police as a suspect. There is a ‘suspicion’ by the police that this is a crime.
The woman is currently under all restrictions, which means that she is only allowed to have contact with her lawyer. A police spokesperson said she is still in hospital, but is out of danger. No further information is being shared at this time. The police are still investigating.
On Sunday afternoon, the police found two victims in the home after a report for resuscitation. One of them was dead, the other seriously injured. The seriously injured victim, the woman, was removed from the home by the fire brigade and taken to hospital by ambulance.
‘No do not do that’
According to a number of local residents that AT5 spoke to today, it could be a conflict in the relational sphere. The upstairs neighbor heard someone shout ‘no, don’t do that’, then according to him it became quiet. Local residents say they are shocked by the incident.
Erik Boog, mayor of Diemen, said he was shocked after the incident on X. He speaks of a terrible incident. “We sympathize with those involved.”
