Bloemenzee for man (22) who was found dead at Pieterskerkhof: ‘Ski buddy, I’m going to miss you’ | Utrecht

Flowers have been laid in the Pieterskerkhof for 22-year-old ‘Sem’ who died earlier this week. Texts are written on the paving stones and a candle is also burning. The bicycle of the deceased man has also been found, the police said.

Where there was only one withered rose around the Pieterskerkhof on Friday afternoon, the man’s location is now strewn with colorful flowers. Various texts are written on the paving stones in chalk. ‘Hello dear Shem, go to where there is only love’, ‘Sem ski buddy, I’m going to miss you’ and ‘thanks for all the good times’. A candle burns in the midst of all the flowers.

The 22-year-old man was last seen at De Jans Bar on Janskerkhof on Wednesday night. Two hours later, a local resident found the man at the Pieterskerkhof. CPR was of no avail: the boy had died. His identity has so far been unknown. Now it appears to be a 22-year-old man by the name of ‘Sem’.

Bicycle

The police have been looking for his dark-colored granny bike in recent days, but have now found it in the vicinity of the Domkerk. The bicycle is therefore no longer wanted, but ‘tips that can tell more about how this bicycle ended up there are of course still welcome’, the police said.

The police assume a non-natural death, but it is not yet clear exactly how the man could have died. Local residents told this website yesterday that ‘no one saw or heard anything, not even yelling’.
