BRUSSELS (AP) — Belgian authorities arrested two men on suspicion of planning Islamic State-inspired terror attacks in Brussels during the holidays, the federal prosecutor's office said Tuesday.
The investigation revealed "the threat of serious attacks that would target several emblematic places in Brussels and be committed during the end-of-year holidays," the prosecutor's office said.
BOSTON – A probe of a city official's calls to a Boston hotel and restaurant to warn of impending Teamsters picketing in June 2014 found no evidence of collusion with the union to influence either establishment, and concluded the official acted on his own.
The Omni Parker House hotel downtown and Menton restaurant in the Fort Point area both called off planned shoots of "Top Chef" episodes after receiving the calls, and the out-of-town production company moved the work to a restaurant in Milton. There, federal prosecutors have alleged, members of Charlestown-based Teamsters Local 25 intimidated the crew and members of the cast in an effort to force the company to give union members no-work "jobs."
