"An explosive hazardous substance was suspected," a police spokesperson explained to the "Krone" newspaper. According to reports, the pharmacist had discovered a bottle of picric acid during a check in the warehouse.
The acid was previously used to test the purity of medicines. It is harmless in liquid form, but when it crystallizes, there is a high risk of explosion. The alarm was therefore raised.
The area around Unterer Stadtplatz had to be cordoned off over a large area. "The defusing service moved out and ventilated the building," said the police. The all-clear was given at around 4 pm. According to the police, no one was injured.
