Thursday afternoon police spotted a car parked on the Jong Aruba field, they approached to check what was going on and noticed the car was open, inside they found a knife and a machete.
While checking with their precinct for information on the car, three young men approached the officers in a disrespectful manner. Police noticed they had no documents for the car and requested a tow truck. All the while the youngsters were insulting the police, who kept their composure. This continued until one of the boys reached into the car and while police asked him to get out and while an officer held onto him by his shirt to get him out of the car, the youngster punched the officer in the face. The officer in an attempt to arrest the youngster got punched and kicked numerous times, but ultimately the boy was arrested.
While waiting for backup, police asked the other two youngsters to leave and as they walked away one threatened the officers, indicating with their hands that the cops would be shot. This action led to their arrest as well.
The car was taken into custody.
