Smart City in Graz was cordoned off on Tuesday afternoon due to a "suspicious object". One restaurant was evacuated. Specialists gave the all-clear: the object - a beer can - is harmless!

A major police operation was carried out in the Smart City in Graz on Tuesday afternoon: a "suspicious object" was found at a bus stop opposite the Science Tower in Waagner-Biro-Straße, the police reported. "We are now waiting for the specialists from the defusing service", a spokesperson told the "Krone" newspaper.

The surrounding area has been closed to traffic and public transport, which is why streetcar line 6 cannot run to the terminus and turns at Laudongasse.

The Streets restaurant in Waagner-Biro-Straße was evacuated, as confirmed by the police, but apartments in the vicinity were not.

The all-clear was given at 4.30 p.m.: the object examined was harmless. It was an empty beer can wrapped in adhesive tape. All closures were lifted.
