Two teenagers have been arrested in connection with a shooting at the Bredero vocational training college in Amsterdam Noord on Tuesday.

Both 17-year-olds and the 20-year-old who was shot were students at the ROC college, where the shooting took place. The victim was shot in the leg and taken to hospital.

Police say there may have been a conflict in the college leading up to the shooting. Both youngsters who have been arrested come from Amsterdam.

The police have appealed for anyone with footage of the shooting to come forward. Footage of the victim being given first aid and bleeding profusely was sent out live on TikTok, the police said.
