Biography
Vorstedt is Arjen Rudd's head of security, and he tries to scare Detectives Martin Riggs and Roger Murtaugh so they cease their investigation. When that fails, he starts killing their friends one by one. Just before he has Riggs killed, Pieter reveals that he's responsible for the death of Riggs' wife before having Rika killed, who had betrayed Arjen.

At a shipping dock, Riggs and Vorstedt engage in a knife fight. At first, Vorstedt appears to have the upper hand until Riggs eventually stabs him, but instead of killing Vorstedt, Riggs lets him go and walks away. With his remaining strength, Vorstedt picks himself up and points a gun at Riggs. However, before he can fire, Riggs presses a button on a remote control device used for loading and unloading cargo. Vorstedt looks up just in time to see a cargo container come crashing down on top of him, crushing him.
