One dead, one injured in violent incident

One man is dead and a woman seriously injured following a violent incident in a house in The Hague on Sunday.

Police report that officers had rushed to Nieuwersluisstraat following reports of a disturbance. They found the 30-year-old woman lying badly injured at the entrance of the house. Inside the house they found the 36-year-old man who lived there; he was dead.

A small child that officers found in the house was unharmed. Police say the injured woman was taken to the hospital where she was listed in stable condition today.

It was not immediately clear what the “violent incident” entailed exactly. Police say the Extensive Investigations Team TGO is probing the case, together with Forensic Detectives. A Prosecutor is leading the investigation.
