A terminal in Copenhagen Airport was evacuated due to a terror alert sparked by a suspicious bag.
Passengers at Terminal 3 and the airport’s metro station were escorted outside and on to the pavement as police investigate the terror alert.
Armed officers were called to the scene along with bomb experts to investigate the possible threat.
Flight departures were moved to other terminals, an airport spokesperson said.
Danish police revealed on Twitter that the evacuation was triggered by “an overheard conversation about a bomb”.
