ROTTERDAM, Netherlands (AP) — Dutch police say Seattle Mariners outfielder Greg Halman has been stabbed to death and his brother has been arrested as a suspect.

Rotterdam Police spokeswoman Patricia Wessels says police were called to a home in the Dutch port city early Monday morning and found Halman bleeding from a stab wound.

The officers attempted unsuccessfully to resuscitate the 24-year-old.

Wessels says the officers arrested Halman’s 22-year-old brother. She declined to give his name, in line with Dutch privacy rules.

She said the brother was being questioned by police.
