Woman dies as stones thrown at cars

A 72-year-old woman was killed and her husband injured when he drove into a tree after a stone was thrown at their vehicle from a passing car on Sunday night. The incident happened in the Noord-Brabant town of Best.


In what police believe may be related incidents, a 21-year-old woman was hit on the shoulder after a rock was thrown through her windscreen in the nearby village of Sint-Oedenrode. Later, a 53-year-old woman was unhurt in a similar incident in Son en Breugel.
Police have put a team of 20 detectives on the case and are appealing for witnesses.
