Berlin [Germany], February 16: Approximately 450 people had to leave an InterCity Express (ICE) train in northern Germany in the early hours of Saturday morning after a suspicious envelope was discovered on board.
The passengers were able to continue their journey after about three and a half hours, the police said.
The station in the small town of Elze in the district of Hildesheim in Lower Saxony was also cordoned off overnight, a police spokeswoman reported. A suspicious A5 envelope was reportedly found in a toilet cubicle on the high-speed train. Consequently, the ICE made an additional stop at Elze station.
A shuttle transport was organized for the affected passengers to a nearby gymnasium.
According to a spokeswoman from German rail operator Deutsche Bahn, other trains were diverted. Emergency services inspected the envelope and concluded their operation after several hours, the police spokeswoman said. (DPA)
