Dutch crime journalist wounded in Amsterdam shooting

A prominent Dutch journalist known for investigating the criminal underworld has been shot and seriously wounded on a street in central Amsterdam.

Peter R de Vries, 64, was shot minutes after leaving a TV studio, where he had appeared on a chat show. Mr de Vries is famed for his work on exposing mobsters and drug lords, and has helped police solve a number of high-profile cases.

Three men were arrested, but police say one is no longer a suspect.

Hours after the attack, two men were arrested in a car on the A4 motorway at Leidschendam - a 35-year-old Polish national living in Maurik and a 21-year-old man living in Rotterdam. They will face court on Friday.

Mr de Vries was previously given police protection after receiving threats for his involvement in criminal cases as an investigative journalist.
