2023-11-07 11:04:00

A large police force was deployed this Tuesday morning around the Sainte-Union Educational Center in Tournai, due to a bomb threat shortly following students entered class.

The threat was taken very seriously; both staff and students of the establishment, located along the Chaussée de Lille, were evacuated. Everyone was welcomed into the nearby sports hall.

Given the proximity of the Val-Itma school buildings, the students and the teaching team were also forced to go to the sports center, where an HQ was established. A social worker came to the scene.

The Chaussée de Lille was quickly closed to traffic, as well as the side roads between the boulevard and rue de la Culture.
