An unknown person wearing combat fatigues first shot at people in an apartment and then at a hospital, police said.
Several people were killed by a gunman who opened fire in a classroom at a university hospital in the Dutch port city of Rotterdam and in a nearby house, police said.
A 32-year-old suspect was arrested Thursday after police said on X, formerly Twitter, that they were notifying next of kin before releasing more details. A suspect had been arrested after the shooting at the Erasmus Medical Center in Rotterdam and a nearby apartment.
It was unclear how many people were injured per location.
Videos posted online showed police instructing students, some wearing medical gowns, to run outside as heavily armed SWAT teams arrived on the scene. One video showed a handcuffed man wearing camouflage pants.

Two hours later, police said several deaths had occurred and the victims’ relatives had been informed.
Police say there is no evidence of a second shooter. A press conference was planned by local officials.
There have been dozens of small explosions in homes and businesses across Rotterdam this year, with rival drug gangs blamed.
