Dutch COVID-19 testing facility torched during ongoing riots over curfew |
2021-01-25 |
[NYPOST] A COVID-19 testing facility was torched in the Netherlands during riots on the first night of a strict new curfew — with police later using water cannons against protesters as the violence raged on Sunday. Local media video from Urk, a fishing village about 50 miles northeast of Amsterdam, showed a mob breaking into the portable testing facility on Saturday night and setting it ablaze. By Sunday morning, only a burnt-out shell remained, with police saying it came on a night where rioters were throwing stones and fireworks in an attempt to destroy cop cars. The violence came as a strict curfew — the nation’s first since World War II — prohibited people going out from 9 p.m. until 4:30 a.m. By early Sunday, at least 25 people had been arrested and more than 3,600 people fined for breaching the curfew, police said. |
