NETHERLANDS, May 21: Multiple people have been injured in a mass stabbing incident early this morning in Hoofddorp, a town in the Haarlemmermeer district of northern Holland. Among the victims, a police officer was reported injured, and at least one individual is said to be in very serious condition.

Emergency services responded to the scene at Fanny Blankers-Koenlaan around 6 a.m. local time (4 a.m. GMT), where they found multiple victims. The police confirmed in a statement that the incident involved several individuals, including a police officer. Multiple ambulances and trauma teams were dispatched to the area.

Local media reported that the injured officer was taken to the hospital, and one police car was seen “smeared with blood.” Authorities have not yet determined the cause of the incident, and investigations are ongoing. The police have cordoned off the street as they continue to assess the situation.

Fanny Blankers-Koenlaan is known to be a residential facility that serves people with mild to moderate intellectual disabilities, although it remains unclear if the facility was directly involved in the incident.

A trauma helicopter, along with at least six ambulances and two trauma teams, were seen at the scene, according to reports from the Algemeen Dagblad. Footage from the area shows a police cordon around the location, with ambulances parked nearby and officers standing by.

Police have not disclosed the identities of the injured victims or the specific nature of their injuries, beyond confirming that one person is in serious condition. Authorities have yet to provide information on any arrests made. More details are expected to be released later.
