'Weapon fanatic' Amin D. (37) shot prison guard to death on crowded terrace in Amsterdam
Amin D., a 37-year-old man known locally as 'Soma', fatally shot a prison guard on a crowded terrace at NDSM-kade in Amsterdam-Noord on Friday afternoon. The victim, Marcel, had worked for over thirty years and was well-liked; he and Amin D. had previously crossed paths while detained in Bijlmerbajes and Justitieel Complex Zaanstad. Amin D., described by acquaintances as a 'weapon fanatic' with a history of violent crimes, engaged in a verbal altercation before pulling a pistol from his bag. After the shooting, he discarded the weapon in the water and waited for police arrest. Authorities are investigating whether their prior acquaintance influenced the incident.
