Berlin, Sep 2 (AP): An explosion near a German train station followed by the discovery of a suspicious object caused police to close the transport hub in the southern city of Augsburg on Wednesday morning. Trains were no longer running.

Later, another suspicious object that did not explode was discovered right at the main train station, according to dpa.
Explosives experts from the Bavarian state criminal police office were investigating at the scene.
Road traffic and public transportation in the vicinity of the station were also disrupted, police said on X.
