Investigators in France say video evidence shows an as yet unidentified man in a car used during the Paris attacks. He was seen in a black Seat with two Belgian nationals. With European countries on high alert, an international football match in Germany was called off at short notice because of what police described as a serious bomb threat. Officials said that so far no explosives had been found in the stadium in Hannover. David Michelin reports.
"One and a half hours before kick-off the match between Germany and the Netherlands was cancelled because of what German police describe as a concrete security threat. Germany's chancellor Angela Merkel had been due to attend the match together with numerous cabinet ministers. Initially the German team's players did not want to go ahead with the game, having already experienced the trauma of being at the Paris stadium on Friday. But the team had then decided to play as a sign of solidarity for France until the game was called off because of the security threats." |
