“The stabbings took place shortly after 11 pm. It quickly became clear they had been carried out by the same person. A 29-year-old man from Amstelveen has been arrested as the only suspect,” a police statement said.

“There is no indication that he had a terrorist motive for carrying out the attacks,” it added.

No information has been released about the condition of the four injured, who were taken to hospital. (ILKHA)
