Man injured in Roosendaal home conflict; Roommate arrested

A man was hospitalized with multiple stab wounds early Sunday morning following a conflict at a residence on Philipslaan, police reported. A roommate of the victim was arrested on suspicion of involvement.

Emergency services responded shortly after midnight. A trauma helicopter was initially dispatched but later stood down. Officers found the injured man inside the home; he was conscious and able to communicate. He was taken by ambulance to a hospital.

A witness told police that another man ran from the scene. Officers later found him in a nearby garden and arrested him on suspicion of involvement. Investigators are continuing to determine his exact role in the incident.

A portion of Philipslaan was temporarily cordoned off while authorities conducted their investigation. Police are asking anyone with information about the incident to contact them at 0900-8844.
