A Concert Venue In The Netherlands Has Been Evacuated After A Terrorist Threat – By  Nidhi Prakash &  Salvador Hernandez / Aug 23 2017

A concert in the Dutch city of Rotterdam was canceled Wednesday after police, acting on a terrorism tip from Spanish authorities, stopped a van with gas bottles inside.

The van, which had Spanish plates, was stopped near The Maassilo, which had planned to host the California-based band, the Allah-Las.

In a statement released by Dutch police, the driver was identified only as a Spanish national. Police also did not detail what kind of gas the containers were for.

Later in the evening, however, the Associated Press cited a Spanish counterterrorism official in reporting that after questioning the driver, police determined the van was not connected to the attacks that killed 15 people in Spain.
