Two teenagers at a child and youth care center in Emmen are alleged to have attacked and killed their supervisor on Saturday, the Dagblad van het Noorden reported.

The supervisor, a 26-year-old woman whose name is being withheld, was stabbed with a knife, Drenthe police said in a Twitter post.

Aan de Stationsstraat in #Emmen heeft rond 20:30uur vanavond een steekincident plaatsgevonden. Hierbij is een persoon zwaargewond geraakt. Op dit moment zijn meerdere hulpdiensten ter plaatse. We onderzoeken wat er precies is gebeurd.

Emmen Mayor, Eric van Oosterhout, said that police had launched an investigation into what went on at the Yorneo center, a facility that provides “family assistance with accommodation” to young people between 12 and 18.

Vanavond een fatale gebeurtenis bij jeugdzorginstelling @yorneo in de Stationsstraat in Emmen, waarbij een begeleidster om het leven kwam. Mijn medeleven gaat uit naar de nabestaanden van het slachtoffer. De politie onderzoekt de toedracht.

While the exact sequence of events is still unclear, it is understood a young girl raised the alarm after she witnessed the incident. Police arrived on the scene shortly after receiving the 112 call around 8:30pm. The first alleged perpetrator, a 19-year-old man, was located on an Emmen street and taken into custody. The second suspect, a 16-year-old person, was arrested later in the night in Meppel.

We zijn verdrietig en verslagen door dit verlies. Een inktzwart moment voor de betrokkenen en ons als organisatie. Onze eerste aandacht gaat uit naar alle direct betrokkenen, waarbij we ruimte en begrip vragen om dit samen te kunnen verwerken (2/2).

Dozens gathered on Saturday to voice calls for justice outside the assisted living facility where the youth case worker was killed. “This violent and sad event has affected us deeply,” the Yorneo center said in an online post. “We are saddened and devastated by the loss.”
