Austrian security officials say a 19-year-old arrested on Wednesday was planning to kill "a large crowd of people" in a suicide attack at a Taylor Swift concert in Vienna.
Officials say the teen – who had previously pledged allegiance to the Islamic State group (IS) – confessed that he "intended to carry out an attack using explosives and knives".
Swift’s three sold-out shows at the Ernst Happel Stadium have been cancelled. More than 195,000 people had been expected to attend.
Local media have also reported that the 19-year-old, the main suspect out of three, had stolen chemicals from his former workplace.
