Three people have been killed and a number others have been injured after a man opened fire in a tram in the Dutch city of Utrecht, reports Dutch media outlet HLN. According to Dutch police, the man who was in a tram in Utrecht pulled out a gun and started shooting people. The shooter, who was arrested several hours later, has been identified as 37-year-old Turkish-born Gokmen Tanis. The motive for the attack is currently unclear. Police say it may be related to ‘family issues’ as opposed to terrorism.

A terrorist motive is being investigated, announced Utrecht Police. The police is investigating the shooting at the #24oktoberplein in Utrecht this morning. An possible terrorist motif is part of the investigation. — Politie Utrecht…
