This is heartbreaking.
Mieke Oort, a 21-year-old woman from Massachusetts, was found dead Sunday morning in The Netherlands, after she was allegedly attacked by a man she met on Tinder.
According to reports, Mieke, of Winchester, moved into an apartment in Leeuwarden recently — located about 90 minutes away from Amsterdam. She had split from her boyfriend of two years, Michael van der Waal, and began to date a man identified as 27-year-old Thomas R. They met on Tinder and dated just briefly. But once she got back together with Michael, Thomas became enraged, allegedly stalking her.

Speaking to local outlets, Michael claimed that the suspect harassed Oort via WhatsApp and even drove up and down her street. It’s also reported he placed a GPS tracking device on the young woman’s bike.
At around 3:30 a.m. on Sunday, cops received a call about a fire in her apartment building. Once the flames had been extinguished, Mieke’s body was found dead inside. Two other men, aged 25 and 30, also suffered mild to severe injuries.
Authorities believe the fire was started by Thomas after he threw an incendiary bomb against the house to force the other residents out of the building. He apparently fought two male residents as well; it is unclear if these are the same men that were injured. At some point, he went upstairs and allegedly stabbed Oort with a sharp object. Van der Waal told Leeuwarder Courant:
While it seems like the boyfriend was aware that Thomas was becoming a problem, he did not think anything like this would happen, he revealed to Heart of the Netherlands:
To make matters worse, he learned of his girlfriend’s death via social media! How
