Siegburg (dpa / lnw) - A suspicious-looking garbage can parked on a platform caused a police operation and train delays at Siegburg station on Tuesday morning. A spokeswoman for the federal police said that cables were sticking out, the green bin was taped shut, and defused devices and an explosives detection dog were brought in. But it soon turned out: "There was nothing dangerous in it."
Initially, according to the information, only the adjacent track was blocked. Later, the entire station was closed for about half an hour. The police operation ended around 10 a.m. There are likely to be delays and partial cancellations, according to the Zuginfo.NRW portal. Siegburg is on the high-speed route between Cologne and Frankfurt Airport.
