Man found dead in Hague ditch likely accident victim
A pedestrian found a dead body in a ditch on Gramsbergenlaan in the Hague on Sunday. The victim presumably died because of an accident.
The police immediately launched an investigation in the neighborhood and a police helicopter made an overview of the situation. Divers recovered the body on Sunday afternoon.
The investigation showed that the victim is a 67 year old man from The Hague. It is still unclear how the man ended up in the water.
The police does not suspect a crime. The current assumption is that the man died of an accident.
