More unrest as youths clash in Culemborg

Police were again drafted in to restore order on a housing estate in Culemborg, southeast of Utrecht on Sunday night after fighting between rival groups of youths.


A number of windows were smashed as Moroccan and Moluccan youths clashed on the Terweijde estate, Nos tv reported. There was also fighting between the two groups on New Year’s Eve when six people were arrested.
According to the Telegraaf, there were no arrests on Sunday night but police have been given temporary powers to stop people who do not live in the area from entering.
Police and council officials will meet to discuss the problems later on Monday.
