A third teenager has been arrested in connection with a foiled attack on now-canceled Taylor Swift concerts in Vienna. That’s according to Austrian Interior Minister Gerhard Karner. The 18-year-old was taken into custody after allegedly being in contact with the main suspect. Karner announced the arrest during an unrelated news conference Friday. Authorities say the plot appeared to be inspired by the Islamic State group and al Qaeda.
” During a raid of the suspect’s home in Ternitz, south of Vienna, investigators found chemical substances and technical devices that indicated “concrete preparatory acts,” said Franz Ruf, director general for public security at the Ministry of the Interior. Authorities said they also found Islamic State group and al-Qaida material at the home of the second suspect, who is 17.
