A 15-year-old boy from Dordrecht was arrested on suspicion of involvement in the death of a 17-year-old boy, who was shot on Friday night at Haardstee in Amsterdam-Zuidoost.

The first suspect, a 16-year-old from Amsterdam, was arrested on Sunday. The police is not yet giving details about the circumstances of the shooting. The two suspects are currently in custody.
