Belgian police arrest a man suspected of having gunned down two Swedish soccer fans in an attack in Brussels, a spokesman for the federal prosecutors’ service says.

Spokesman Eric Van Duyse tells AFP officers “opened fire” as they apprehended the man in the Schaerbeek area of the city, but do not say if the suspect was wounded.
