Two explosions hit mailrooms in Netherlands, letter bombs suspected – police | |
(32 minutes later) | |
Blasts have rocked mail facilities in two Dutch cities within half an hour of each other. Police suspect letter bombs as a series of mysterious packages containing explosives were mailed to various companies in recent weeks. | |
The first explosion occurred at a postal services office inside Amsterdam’s Bolstroen business center shortly before 8am local time on Tuesday, police said. Half an hour later, it was followed by a second blast at a mail-sorting facility in the town of Kerkrade in the southeastern Limburg Province. Nobody was hurt in both incidents. | |
Amsterdam police said that the blast “presumably came from a letter bomb.” | |
