The police are still looking for the man who may have been kidnapped in Spanbroek, Noord-Holland, on Friday afternoon . A police spokesperson said on Sunday that several tips have been received, but that it is still unclear who the man is or where he was staying.

The man was forced into a car on the Herenweg in Spanbroek on Friday afternoon around 2:20 p.m. Since then, both he and the car have disappeared without a trace. However, two men were arrested in the night from Friday to Saturday in Heerhugowaard, about 10 kilometers away.
