THREE PEOPLE WERE killed and one badly injured in a shoot-out near the Jewish Museum in Brussels city centre.
Belgian Foreign Minister Didier Reynders said on Twitter:
I am shocked by the murders committed at the Jewish museum, I am thinking of the victims I saw there and their families.
A bystander, Alain Sobotic, told AFP he had seen the minister at the scene.
No information was immediately available from police on the circumstances of the shoot-out but Sobotic said he had seen two corpses just inside the doors of the museum, a young woman and a man.
The Jewish Museum of Belgium, which was not answering calls, is located in the heart of the Sablon district which is home to the city’s top antique dealers.
According to La Libre, 12 people were treated for shock immediately after the incident.
