Rotterdam shootings: Gunman arrested after killing 3 people
A gunman has been arrested in the Netherlands after shooting dead at least three people in the city of Rotterdam.
The attacker, 32, opened fire in a home before he set it alight, then he stormed the city’s Erasmus Medical Center on Thursday.
The shooter was a student at Erasmus University, which is affiliated with the hospital.
A woman, 39 and her 14-year-old daughter were killed in the first shooting, and a male lecturer, 43, was shot dead at the hospital.
Footage shows a man in camouflaged clothing being taken from the hospital building in handcuffs.
The motives for the attacks are unknown.
Dutch Prime Minister Mark Rutte wrote in a post on social media: “My thoughts go out to the victims of the violence, their loved ones and to all the people who have been in great fear.”
