French police on Wednesday detained a woman at a hospital in Dunkirk after she made a bomb threat and sparked a security scare.
Police said in a statement that the woman made the threat after entering the hospital’s emergency care unit.
Hospital workers alerted the police, who sealed off the area and deployed a bomb-disposal team.
“The person is under police control,” the statement said.
Regional newspaper La Voix du Nord had reported that the woman was threatening to detonate a bomb.
Photos posted on the paper’s website showed police sealing off the area.
Police said a judicial investigation would have to determine the circumstances surrounding the threat.
Sources, however, said the woman was likely suffering from psychological problems. - PM News
