A person has died and two police officers were injured following a shooting overnight in Overasselt, a village in the Dutch province of Gelderland, police said.
Officers were called to Ewijkseweg street at around 4:20am CET after reports of gunfire. One person was found dead at the scene; the two injured officers were taken to hospital and are "out of danger," a police spokesperson said, according to Dutch public broadcaster, NOS.
Security footage published by Dutch news outlet De Telegraaf showed a large group of masked individuals walking around in the area, some apparently carrying heavy weapons.
Police confirmed multiple arrests overnight, with further detentions made Tuesday morning as the elite tactical unit DSI continued searching the area, firing warning shots, and roads were closed by law enforcement officers.
Officers have not released the victim's identity, cause of death, or confirmed arrest numbers.
