Five cars went up in flames in a series of arsons committed within minutes in Amsterdam over night, RTL Nieuws reports.

The cars were set alight on Keizersgracht, Prinsengracht and Boomstraat.

A Burgernet report was issued calling on Amsterdam residents to keep an eye out for "persons behaving suspiciously".

The police are still looking for the perpetrator.
