Man drowned in Dommel
In an unrelated incident in Eindhoven, a dead man was recovered from the Dommel. This happened during the weekend. Eindhovens Dagblad reported this and stated police is not thinking of a crime.
The body was identified as a 49-year-old man from Hungary. Police think this may have been an accident or even suicide. Perhaps the man who was known to wander through town, suffered a heart-attack.
The body was found near the Van Abbemuseum. Over the past few years, several bodies were found here.
