A 39-year-old man and a 14-year-old boy have been arrested in the Floradorp neighbourhood of Amsterdam-Noord, according to De Telegraaf. Both are suspected of openlijke geweldpleging — public violence — following a fresh outbreak of unrest in the district.
Officers were pelted with stones and glass during the incident, NOS and RTL.nl report. NU and RTL.nl both put the number of arrests at two.
The trouble marks another episode of disturbance in Floradorp, a district that has seen repeated unrest in recent weeks. Het Parool reports that residents fear months of further disruption following earlier riots linked to banned fireworks.
The reports do not specify the exact time of the arrests, the charges the two suspects may face, or whether anyone was injured. De Telegraaf's headline identifies the pair only by age and gender.
Police have not commented publicly beyond what has been reported, and no court dates have been announced.
What to watch next: whether the two suspects are brought before a magistrate, and whether police step up their presence in Floradorp amid residents' concerns about prolonged unrest.
