37-year-old suspect in fatal Amsterdam-Noord shooting held for two more weeks

A 37-year-old suspect accused of fatally shooting a 61-year-old man on an Amsterdam-Noord terrace has been remanded for an additional two weeks. The shooting, which allegedly stemmed from a verbal disagreement, resulted in the suspect's immediate arrest after he discarded the weapon in a nearby canal.
A 37-year-old man, identified as Amin D., will remain in detention for at least another two weeks following the fatal shooting of 61-year-old Marcel on the NDSM wharf in Amsterdam-Noord. The suspect is currently being held under strict restrictions, limiting his communication exclusively to his legal counsel as investigations continue. The incident occurred on a busy terrace last Friday afternoon, allegedly following a verbal dispute. Witnesses suggest the confrontation may have been triggered by a disagreement over the suspect's unrestrained dog, though officials have not definitively confirmed the motive.
Following the shooting, the suspect remained at the scene for several minutes and was filmed discarding a weapon into the water before being apprehended by police. Divers later recovered the firearm from the water. Local reports indicate the suspect is known in the surrounding neighborhoods of Tuindorp Oostzaan and Molenwijk. Authorities continue to examine the circumstances surrounding the violent altercation, which resulted in the death of the victim on the public terrace.
