The police are looking for eight suspects for involvement in a fatal beating on the Plein in The Hauge early on Sunday morning. A 23-year-old man died a few hours after being assaulted.

The suspects are all men with lightly tanned skin and between the ages of 18 and 35, the police said. Investigators are also still looking for camera footage of the public violence and witnesses.
