Suitcase at German Train Station Had Bomb

DRESDEN - A suitcase left at a railway station in an eastern German city last week contained a bomb. Police found explosives and a detonator in the black case, which was abandoned Friday evening on platform 14 in Dresden's main station. It was unclear if the bomb was activated. "Many travelers would have been killed or injured if it had exploded," said Rico Mueller, a spokesman for state police in Dresden. Police had no leads in the incident and appealed for witnesses. The station, which was busy with travelers ahead of a three-day holiday weekend, was evacuated and closed for several hours Friday while police used a trained dog to check the case for explosives and a robot to open it and remove the contents.
