One of the most famous intelligence journalists in the Netherlands was seriously injured in Amsterdam last night. 64-year-old Peter R. De Vries was a regular guest on a TV show, someone was walking on Lange Leitzwerstrod Shot him four or five times. In one video we see a lifeless reporter on the ground with blood coming out of his head. Then rush to the hospital.
His condition is so bad – says Vincent Verghese, a colleague who works at the crime site – that we are shocked.
