Schools closed in two Dutch cities about violence in youth and video abuse

Secondary schools in two neighboring cities in the Netherlands were told to close on Friday a number of violence involving two groups of young people.

All five schools in Bevervit and Hemskerk were closed, trying to restore peace after the images that spread to the adolescent attacked, along with the AI ​​videos showing false explosions in two schools.

Beverwijk Martijn Smit Mayor issued a three -day emergency order, banning all meetings from three or more people and assigning areas as a “high risk” to prevent the use of a potential pistol.

“Parents worried that their children were studying at school,” said Smith Nos Radio, “so it was wise to have a rest day and then return on Monday.”

Two rival groups of young men were accused of escalating violence, which apparently began with serious damage caused by the school in Beverwit last week. Police said a 22-year-old man was arrested on suspicion of vandalism.

Then the fighting began, and the boy was seriously injured. There was one unverified video Tiktok that shows the boy’s foot covered with his mouth.

The mayor said that people were afraid and “very unpleasant videos” shared abuse of young people, adding: “Pants are thwarted, their genitals are shooting and posted on the Internet – and I really think it is enough.”

Dutch Justice Minister Faort Van Austen said “incredibly sad that schools had to decide to do so” because it was the right of children to go to school.

Police said in a statement that they were working on “restoring peace and ensure security in the area,” and had powers on emergency orders from Bverbiya and Hemsker to carry out preventive searches and ordering groups.

Sports clubs canceled the evening training, and the local DEM buzz said there were violations.

“It’s hard to imagine what’s happening in normal life,” said the BBB Farmer Ctizen Caroline de Plas movement leader. “We’ll go crazy.”
