Damage was done to surrounding shops, caving in part of the ceiling. Police officers and fire fighters were called to the scene to control the situation. Forensic investigators obtained security camera images from the scene, a police department statement says. Witnesses said they saw three people flee towards the Pauwenveld east of the station.
