Title: Queen's Day in the Netherlands ends in drama
Post by: SomethingWild on April 30, 2009, 01:39:47 PM
YouTube - Broadcast Yourself. (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y_U17aqfjGs&feature=player_embedded#)

The commentator says stuff like "people lying on the floor.. what's going on.. definitely not planned, etc."

A car crashed through the spectators during the Queen's Day celebrations in the Netherlands. 2 deaths, 12 injured so far. The guy in the car is still alive. Some say he was trying to hit the bus with the royal family in it.

The car crashed through at least two barriers to get to this point, hence why it's already damaged.

press conference in about 2 hours  :-\

update:

4 deaths, 13 injured of which 5 severely. The driver is a 38 year old male. No motive yet. He's currently in the hospital for surgery.

Pretty much all the festivities are cancelled or cut short.

omfg!!! Perhaps the guy in the car is assassinating the royal family!

But what a tragedy to those innocents, I wish those that are injured will get better soon and RIP to the 2 that died...

The guy died last night. His target was indeed the royal family. Apparently he lost his job and was about to get kicked out of his house..

First part yes, second part no: he paid his rent on time but had ended the contract end of April.
