A train station in the southern German city of Augsburg was evacuated and closed Wednesday morning after an explosion from a suspicious object and the discovery of a second device nearby. The incident led to disruptions in train services, road traffic, and public transportation in the area.
The first unidentified object detonated in a building passageway, according to officials. The explosion caused minor injuries to several people, attributed to the loud sound, and also resulted in some window damage.
A second suspicious object was found in the vicinity but did not detonate. Further details regarding the nature of the objects and the specifics of the blast were not immediately available. Augsburg, a city of 308,000 residents, is located in Bavaria, approximately 48 miles northwest of Munich.
