Security tensions running high in Belgium on eve of EU summit

BRUSSELS (AP) — Security tensions are running high ahead of a European Union summit in Brussels, with police launching a search for a man they wanted to question over reports of unspecified threats. The Brussels prosecutor’s office later said authorities had detained a man in the case on Wednesday and were checking his identity. The police operation came one week after an Islamic extremist shot dead two Swedes and wounded a third. Authorities said the Tunisian suspect died following a police operation trying to arrest him. The search for the man came on the eve of a two-day European Union summit that starts Thursday in Brussels, where the 27 EU leaders will discuss, among other things, the Israel-Hamas war.
