TRAINS HALTED AT AMSTERDAM CENTRAL STATION

AMSTERDAM, Netherlands (AP) — Eastbound train traffic at Amsterdam's central station was halted Tuesday afternoon after a suspicious package was found on an international train heading toward Frankfurt, Germany, Amsterdam police said.

Spokesman Gerard Vrooland said the incident had been turned over to the national police, which have the only Dutch bomb squads.

The national NOS television reported that passengers had been evacuated from the train.

There was no immediate word on whether the package was dangerous.

Heightening public nervousness, the alert came on the eve of first anniversary of the murder of filmmaker Theo van Gogh by an Islamic radical, which a court ruled was an act of terrorism.
