Chemical substance

Outside, teachers informed the emergency services, who turned out en masse for the boy. “The local police officer managed to contact him through the smashed window,” the police wrote on Facebook. “He calmed down to such an extent that he himself walked out of the room and was quietly arrested.” The 15-year-old is suspected of vandalism and assault.

The incident took place at the Lyceum Schravenlant on Hugo de Grootstraat in Schiedam. It is still unclear why the boy became so angry. Students tell the AD that the boy was bullied.

Three people were slightly injured. Two students were taken to hospital for a check-up after getting a chemical in their eyes. A victim with a head injury was treated at the scene by ambulance. Someone outside the school building also became unwell, ‘possibly because of all the consternation’. The fire service came to assess the damage. All students were given the rest of the day off.

“The incident logically has a major impact on the teachers and students who were present at the school. Good aftercare is being prepared by the school, the municipality and the security region,” according to the police.
