So far, no (major) incidents have been reported during the celebration of King’s Night. In Utrecht, the municipality called on people to stop coming to the city because it was too busy. Around midnight the pressure in the city center decreased again. It was also busy in The Hague, among others.
In Amsterdam, a man was injured after falling from scaffolding near the Westertoren. That happened around midnight. The man has been taken to hospital. Four other people who climbed the scaffolding have been arrested.
The center of Purmerend was designated as a safety risk area until 6 a.m. during King’s Night. This is because, according to the municipality, a “worrisome rumor” was circulating on social media. The police had additional powers during the night, such as preventive searches and imposing area bans.
