Belgian police say incident involving suspected gunman not terror-related

Belgian police say an incident involving a suspected armed man in Brussels is not terror-related.

Brussels police spokeswoman Kathleen Calie says that officers from Belgium’s special federal force were deployed to the Forest suburb following witness accounts that an armed person could be at large.

A search of one building produced nothing, and a second search is ongoing.

Calie says “we can rule out terrorism.”
