A young man was fatally stabbed on Saturday, September 28th, near the railway station of Mol, in the province of Antwerp. Paramedics attempted to resuscitate him at the scene, but his injuries were so severe that he later died in hospital. A 17-year-old was also injured during the incident.
Earlier that evening, an argument broke out between the victims and another group of youths, and prosecutors believe the two events are linked.
The Belgian authorities have launched a murder investigation. Three minors—two 15-year-olds and one 16-year-old—were taken into custody in Mol and Limburg respectively and are expected to be questioned by a juvenile court judge.
