A man who killed five people after deliberately driving at a crowd cheering Holland's Queen has admitted it was an attack on the royal family, officials said
The driver's speeding car mowed down several people and then came within a few metres of the open-top bus taking Queen Beatrix and her family down a parade route.

It then smashed into a stone monument as the monarchy looked on in horror.

TV footage showed royals putting their hands to their mouths in shock as the car sped through barricades right before their eyes.
No-one in the royal entourage was injured but 13 other people were hurt in the tragedy at the annual Queen's Day royal procession.

Cynthia Boll said she saw about 20 people "flying through the air" after the black Suzuki car swerved across police railings, where crowds of people were waiting to see the queen pass.

Journalist Peter von de Vorst said the incident in the central city of Apeldoorn was like watching a horror movie.

"It was a really nice day. Then you hear a bang," he said.

"Everyone looks up and you see people flying through the air. This must be a joke or a strange prank.

"Then suddenly panic, and you realise that something really terrible has happened."

  • How did the guy admit it? He died!! I saw him with my own eyes! Dead!!

  • The reason why people hate the royal family so much, your rulers is because you cant be free and ruled - laws are rules made by the queens government - if a country

    is ruled it is a ruled country not a free country - it is unfortunate

    that innocent people got killed

  • wtf thats a great ambulance noise @1:55 wtf it sounds like teh wurlitzer

  • why didn't they shoot this moron ?I think the US instead of voting stupid global laws that is none of their business for the whole world (like copyright and patent global laws) should vote that if you murder your going to be judge in the US.

  • How disgusting, the news shows the dead bodies on the ground and the car crashing...

    Then the photographer runs directly to the window to get a shot of the person behind the wheel instead of helping him.

    The royal families are trash, should have no news coverage or special parades for them anyway.
