A second person is understood to have been detained in the south of the Netherlands.

Officers made the discovery after a tip-off from Spanish authorities about a potential terror threat.

The performance by an American rock band was cancelled as a result.

It’s not thought to be linked to the investigation into the Catalonia attacks.

Rotterdam mayor Ahmed Aboutaleb says they responded promptly.
