CCTV footage showed two people walking into the station and opening fire, Reuters news agency reported. It added it could not immediately verify the images.<\/p>\n

“The suspects fled in the direction of the metro station and may still be in the tunnel between the Clemenceau and Midi stations,” a police spokesperson told Belga News Agency.<\/p>\n

“The Brussels Midi police and the federal railway police are searching the area. No one was injured in the shooting.”<\/p>\n
