In the wake of Project X – Haren, 400,000 Tweets had been exchanged. The first calls to go visit the ‘party’ were made on Facebook.

Dutch media report that a 15-year-old has now been arrested for Tweeting about a new and upcoming Project X party.

Update: Dutch law enforcement has removed a Facebook page calling for a Project X event in the Dutch town of Arnhem. Previously a similar Facebook page inviting people to visit the city of Gouda had been removed too.
