An attacker armed with a knife wounded one person Monday at the Schuman metro and train station in Brussels, the site of the main European institutions.
As confirmed by the mayor of Brussels, Phillipe Close, in a message on social networks, the attack took place at the station in the heart of the European district of Brussels. The perpetrator of the stabbing was quickly arrested thanks to the collaboration of the federal police and the police of the city of Brussels, he said.
For its part, the newspaper ‘Le Soir’ reports that the attacker would have wounded one person and tried to attack others, but the rapid police action has quickly allowed his arrest, according to witnesses.
The circulation of the subway in the Belgian capital has been affected by the police intervention and the service has been suspended on two lines, as reported by the Brussels urban transport company, STIB.
