A 13-year-old boy was forcibly robbed of his fatbike on July 5, 2025, in Diemen. While cycling home from Diemerplein, the victim was grabbed by his shirt by two boys on the Tureluurweg, who intimidated him into surrendering his bike. The physical assault left the victim with marks on his neck, and he also lost a phone that was mounted to his handlebars. The attackers later fled toward the center of Diemen.

The stolen bicycle remains missing and is identified as a La Souris E-Father model with Compass tires and a phone mount.

Investigators have released security footage of a suspect and are urging the public to come forward with information regarding the identity of the individual or the current location of the bike. Police previously released edited footage of the incident as the suspects are believed to be minors.
