Two people who were seriously injured in a knife attack at Amsterdam's Central Station are US citizens, the US ambassador said Saturday, as Dutch police probed a possible terror link.
"We are aware that both victims were US citizens and have been in touch with them and their families," Pete Hoekstra said in a statement.
Panic broke out at the Dutch capital's main station shortly after midday Friday when the knive-wielding man stabbed two bystanders before he was shot and wounded by police.
Police later identified the suspect as a 19-year-old Afghan man with a German residency permit.
