Amsterdam was rocked yesterday by not one, but two shootings within just half an hour! Yes, you read that right – two gunfire incidents in the same city, at almost the same time, like a scene straight out of an action movie. The first shooting happened in the Geldershofd district, where a 27-year-old man was seriously injured. The attacker fled in a small car, and police immediately launched a manhunt. Just half an hour later, in the crowded Vesterpark, more shots rang out, but miraculously, no one was hurt! Witnesses heard the gunfire and saw a man running towards Sparndamerstraat street. Police found five bullet casings at the scene, but details about motives and suspects remain unknown. These events cast a dark shadow over safety in the Dutch capital and raise the question – has Amsterdam become a city where street violence is the new normal? While police hunt for the attackers, residents wonder when this violence will finally stop. Got a theory or hot take on these shootings? Drop a comment – maybe together we can figure out what’s really going on in Amsterdam!
