LONDON: British police said they carried out a controlled explosion on a suspect package near London’s Angel underground station on Wednesday before allowing the station to reopen.
Earlier, London’s transport authority said the station was closed while authorities responded to a security alert outside.
"Got told to run from Angel by police and heard 2 explosions," Twitter user Mason Moore said, advising others to "avoid [the] area".
Britain is at its second-highest level of security alert after several attacks in the country in recent months.
