Dutch police say at least two people have been killed after twin shootings in Rotterdam.
A male attacker, 32, first opened fire at a home before setting the building alight, local media report.
He then made his way to the city’s Erasmus Medical Centre where he shot at least one other person.
Armed police teams later entered the building, and the suspect was arrested. A police briefing is ongoing.
In a post on X, formerly known as Twitter, Rotterdam’s police said the detained suspect was a city resident.
The police said there were no indications of a second gunman.
Police earlier said that the dark-haired tall suspect may have been on a motorcycle, and was carrying a backpack, headphones and a handgun.
Before his arrest, staff were seen running out of the Erasmus Medical Centre with patients, some of them on stretchers.
On two hospital windows taped papers were seen reading: “Room 32. We can’t get out!”
Police said they were searching for further victims in the building, Dutch news agency, ANP, reported.
