Seven enforcers in Zoetermeer mistreated: ‘Had to use emergency button’ | Inland

A number of boas have suffered injuries such as a broken upper arm, head injuries, bumps and bruises. One of them has been taken to hospital for further care. The rioters also destroyed the enforcers’ car.

During their shift, the municipal enforcers wanted to check a vehicle that was stationary at an intersection on the Vogeldreef in the Seghwaert district. They were then harassed, according to the municipality. “The enforcers had to use the emergency button for emergency assistance from colleagues and the police. That must have been a terrible situation for them that has a major impact on the entire team,” said Mayor Michel Bezuijen.

The officers have filed a complaint. “The people who have this violence on their tally will be dealt with severely. Violence against aid workers is absolutely unacceptable and intolerable,” said Bezuijen.
