Suspicious motorbike raises alarm near Stade de

In the build-up to Iceland and Austria's final Group F match in the European Championship, a suspicious motorbike was discovered near the Stade de with police put on alert.

The vehicle was parked in an isolated part of the Saint-Denis area on Wednesday and the National Gendarmerie, a branch of the French Armed Forces, were called to the scene.

Taking no chances, the area was immediately cordoned off and both Austrian and Icelandic fans were diverted to alternative routes to the match.

Soon after, the motorbike was removed and the situation returned to normal, although police continue to be on alert.
