Armed man at The Hague CS was robber

The man who was caught at The Hague Central Station during the Nuclear Security Summit last month appears to have had no terrorist plot, but was in fact a robber. The man was behaving suspiciously, and once he was arrested, police discovered he was carrying several firearms in a bag. The Public Prosecution Authority (OM) says via a spokesperson that the man possibly got the weapons from a robbery he performed on a home in Haren. The Department of Justice already pressed at the time of arrest that was in no way related to the Nuclear Security Summit held in the city at the time. The man is currently still being detained.
