Police are looking for witnesses who cycled past NATO summit train fire
The fire broke out during the night of June 23rd to 24th, just before the NATO summit in The Hague began. Police believe the fire was started between 2:51 and 3:21 a.m. on Oeverlandenweg in Amsterdam.
Multiple cluesThere are no indications that any country is responsible for the railway fire, according to police. However, it is most likely that it was intentional.
For example, the police discovered that accelerants were used, but they did not elaborate. They have ruled out a technical malfunction or an accident. There are also no indications that it was a copper theft.
Important witnessesPolice shared footage yesterday of three cyclists cycling north from the overpass via Adam Smithplein around 3:00 a.m. Police believe these may be important witnesses.
Police are also searching for a taxi driver who dropped off a passenger around 3:30 a.m. near the Adam Smith Building. Police are also requesting dashcam footage from that night.
