The central station in Eindhoven was partly evacuated on Sunday evening due to a bomb threat. A man with a backpack allegedly said he had a bomb with him. The police examined the bag and arrested the man.
The police received a report of ‘suspicious behavior/bomb threat’ around eight o’clock in the evening. The man with the backpack was on a train. The train and platform have been evacuated. Passengers had to leave the platform as quickly as possible. Everyone in the station was kept at a distance.
The police arrived with shields and police dogs and an officer from the Explosives Safety Team (TEV). There appeared to be nothing dangerous in the backpack.
