Two people were arrested this evening (Wednesday) on suspicion of planning attacks on mass events in Vienna – including at a Taylor Swift concert. A few hours later the singer announced: the performances in Vienna have been cancelled.
According to the Austrian police, one of the detainees is a 19-year-old who is suspected of pledging allegiance to ISIS. According to the authorities, the two suspects were radicalized by reading content on the Internet and developed detailed plans to carry out the plot. Following the concern, the three performances planned in Austria were cancelled.
Suspicious chemical substances were found in the 19-year-old’s home. In the police laboratories, they are checking whether these are materials that were supposed to be used as a bomb.
Taylor Swift is scheduled to perform at the Ernst Happel Stadium in the Austrian capital tomorrow, the day after tomorrow and Saturday. According to the police, there is no intention to cancel the performances, but security will be increased.
