Several people were able to leave an Apple store located on the central square in Amsterdam, where a gun-wielding man took one or more people hostage, Dutch police said on Tuesday.
In a tweet, Amsterdam police added that at the moment they do not want to elaborate on the situation in and around the store.
The police cleaned the square and asked neighbors to stay inside and not go out to watch.
The Apple Store is located at one end of the upscale Leidseplein, a square to the south of central Amsterdam.
Images circulating on social media show a man in camouflage pants and a black hoodie brandishing what looks like a gun holding another man hostage inside an Apple store.
