BELGIUM SHOOTING
BRUSSELS, BELGIUM, 29 MAY 2018

A knife-wielding man stabbed two police officers on Tuesday in the Belgian city of Liege, stole their weapons and shot them and a bystander dead in an attack that prosecutors fear could be terror-related.

The attacker, who was later killed by police, was an inmate who had been granted a few hours release on Monday but failed to return to prison, officials said.

A senior official at the federal prosecutor's office told The Associated Press that "there are indications it could be a terror attack."

Despite this, Belgium's crisis centre said it saw no reason to raise the country's terror threat alert for now.
