在得到西班牙警方的线报说恐袭可能迫在眉睫之后，荷兰港口城市鹿特丹的官员取消了美国摇滚乐队阿拉拉斯Allah Las的演出。
鹿特丹市长阿布塔利布在一个仓促安排下所举行的新闻发布会上说，警方正在讯问一辆装有汽罐的货车司机。这辆持有西班牙车牌的货车在音乐厅附近被发现。
音乐会的组织者罗唐在推特上说，音乐厅的人已被疏散，这个被称为马西罗的音乐厅过去是一个谷仓。取消音乐会的决定是在开门迎候公众前不到一个小时做出的。
来自马西罗的电视画面显示，身穿防护服的官员正在陪同据信是乐队成员的一群人。乐队的名称是指伊斯兰教的神明。
阿拉拉斯来自洛杉矶。四名音乐家去年对英国卫报表示，他们选择阿拉伯语对上帝的称呼阿拉，作为他们乐队的名称，因为他们希望起一个“听上去神圣”的名字，但没有意识到它有可能冒犯他人。
Officials in the Dutch port city of Rotterdam canceled a performance by the American rock group Allah-Las following a tip from Spanish police that a terror attack may have been imminent.
Rotterdam Mayor Ahmed Aboutaleb said at a hastily arranged news conference that police were questioning the driver of a van loaded with gas tanks that was found near the concert venue. The vehicle was registered in Spain.
Concert organizer Rotown said on Twitter that the concert venue, a former grain silo called Maassilo, was evacuated. The decision to cancel the event was made less than an hour before doors were to open to the public.
Dutch television images from Maassilo showed officers wearing body armor, escorting a group believed to be members of the band, whose name refers to the Islamic deity.
The Allah-Las group is from Los Angeles. The four musicians told the British newspaper The Guardian last year that they chose Allah, the Arabic name for God, for their group's name because they wanted something "holy sounding," and did not realize it might cause offense.
