Man arrested after Denmark’s Billund Airport evacuated over bomb threat

A man was arrested in Denmark on Saturday in connection with a bomb threat at Billund Airport, the country’s second largest aviation hub, police said in a statement.

The airport, in central western Denmark, was evacuated and remains shut following the threat.

 Scores of firefight vehicles were seen rushing to the airport, the second largest in Denmark, a witness told Danish TV 2.

While the terminal was evacuated, other passengers were first stranded in the planes before being taken to an old terminal building, local media reported.
