Horror, questions in Schiedam after boy, 13, is stabbed to death
Dutch NewsA 13-year-old boy remains in custody following Sunday’s fatal stabbing of another 13-year-old in a quiet residential area of Schiedam, near Rotterdam, as police work to determine what happened. “Across the country, young people are committing more serious crimes at an increasingly younger age,” he said, “especially involving knives and guns.” Experts have also been taken aback by the ages of both the victim and the suspect, whom according to the AD were in the same first year class at school. “Young people are increasingly involved in stabbing incidents, but 13 is very young,” juvenile law professor Mariëlle Bruning told RTL Nieuws. “Most young people involved in incidents like this are older.” “There is also a difference between young people who carry weapons and those who use them,” he added. “Often, there is more at play, such as an unstable home situation, problems at school, or behavioural issues.” Charges It remains unclear whether the 13-year-old suspect will face charges.
