Dutch police arrested 6 people on Tuesday evening during riots that broke out during a demonstration protesting the construction of a new refugee center in the city of Amersfoort.
The Stadhuusplein square in Amersfoort witnessed the anti-demonstration on Tuesday evening, then a counter-group of demonstrators supporting the municipality's plans to host the new center arrived at the square. The atmosphere between the two groups of protesters became tense, which necessitated police intervention. The demonstrators threw fireworks at the police officers. A statement on the company's website stated: "Six people were arrested, and a police officer was injured. Most of the demonstrators left the square around 9:15 p.m."
