“We are looking for two women who spoke with the suspect shortly after the incident,” police said in an appeal posted online. “They spoke English to the suspect. This took place near Keizer Karelplein. They may have important information for the investigation.”

In a statement to Vox, a police spokesperson said the two witnesses are believed to be women studying at Radboud University. However, police are also asking anyone else who may have seen or heard something to come forward. In the appeal, police emphasized that ‘all information, no matter how insignificant it may seem,’ could be important to the investigation.

Before the stabbing, two people were reportedly cycling along Graafseweg toward the traffic lights at Willemsweg. The suspect chased them for a short distance. Police are also explicitly looking for these two cyclists.
