28-year-old woman found dead in Rotterdam home, suspect arrested

On Friday night, a 28-year-old woman died in an apartment building in the Dumasstraat in Rotterdam due to suspicious circumstances, the police reported. During the investigation, a 35-year-old man from Rotterdam was arrested who had been in a relationship with the woman. A child was also in the house at the time of the 28-year-old's death.

Emergency services arrived at the house after receiving a report at around 2 a.m. The woman was resuscitated there for a long time, but all help came too late. The cause of death has not yet been determined, but the police are assuming foul play.

The suspect was arrested at a highway exit of the A1 near Oldenzaal (Overijssel). The police are currently investigating his role and involvement in the woman's death.

The police are asking anyone with information or images from the area around Dumasstraat in the Lombardijen district to come forward.
