Man with cocked crossbow arrested at Schiphol train station | Interior

A man who walked around on the track and a platform of Schiphol Airport train station with a cocked crossbow on Sunday was arrested by the Marechaussee. He “created a threatening situation,” said a spokesman.

The Marechaussee received a report about the man, who was walking on platform 2 at the time. When the Marechaussees arrived, he walked back onto the platform.

According to a spokesperson for the Marechaussee, an NS employee had just “heroically” knocked the crossbow out of the man’s hands.

The Marechaussees managed to overpower the man immediately afterwards. They handcuffed him and took him away.

Who the man is and why he walked around with a crossbow is still under investigation.

The incident did not cause delays at NS.
