Explosives discovered in a former Thionville military fort

Two volunteers of an association have been placed in police custody. However, the terrorist or ideological character seems, for the time being, to be ruled out.

Two young volunteers from the Amicale of the fortified group of Guentrange were arrested, placed in police custody, following the discovery of chemicals and explosive elements stored in a premises of the site. The investigation continues. But the City of Thionville, the owner of the premises, has already responded by ordering the temporary closure of the site.
