Nice Airport evacuated over reports of ‘suspicious package’

Nice Airport has been evacuated, just hours after 84 people were killed in the city during a Bastille Day terror attack.

French troops were rushed to the airport’s baggage collection area following reports of a suspicious package.

But police later allowed passengers back into the airport, with the situation being described as returning to normal

Yesterday a terrorist drove a truck through a crowd of people celebrating Bastille day, killing at least 84 people and leaving dozens more injured.
