the soldiers were staying while on their free time from a training exercise,
according to Forbes.
The shooting
took place at about 3:30 a.m. EDT in Indianapolis’ entertainment district, The Washington

The three
men were taken to the local area hospital for treatment.
The Dutch
Defense Ministry said one soldier was in critical condition while the two
others were conscious but Indianapolis police said two of the soldiers were in
critical condition and the third was stable, according to The Washington Post.

altercation between three soldiers and another person or people led to the
shooting, The Washington Post quoted the Indianapolis police as saying.
