Wikipedia
Tensions with the police peaked in June 1966, when the construction worker Jan Weggelaar died during a demonstration.
The official autopsy stated heart attack, but it was widely believed that Weggelaar had been killed by the police.
De Telegraaf reported that he had been killed by a co-worker.
A strike was called by construction workers and large numbers of workers and their sympathisers, including Provos, marched through Amsterdam.
Demonstrators fought the police in the streets ( on the Dam and Damrak ) and attacked the offices and vehicles of De Telegraaf.
