German police are hunting Islamic State terrorists in Munich, after receiving information about "concrete" plans to launch suicide bombings at major train stations in the city at midnight Thursday, timed for the height of New Year's Eve celebrations.
Police evacuated the two major train stations, and sent messages on Twitter just after 11 p.m. local time warning people to avoid crowds, although thousands of revelers were nevertheless out on the streets to celebrate.
The intelligence services were those of the US and France, according to BR , which added that seven Iraqis living in Munich were the potential bombers, and that they planned to enter the stations in pairs and detonate simultaneously.
