Police tell ABC threat concerns whole of Hannover, not just stadium. Teams were not in stadium, evacuated to undisclosed location
Ambulance bomb still unconfirmed.
Quote:
The head of Hanover police, Volker Kluwe, said they had received “concrete information that someone was planning to set off explosives inside the stadium” approximately 15 minutes after the gates of the stadium were opened.
Police have also evacuated the Tui Arena concert hall, which was due to host a gig by the band Söhne Mannheims at 8pm tonight.
Police say they’re not commenting further for now. We are still waiting for the interior ministry’s press conference to begin.
