Police officers who are investigating the “suspicious object” have rushed to the scene
The alarm has ended at Birmingham New Street train station which was earlier evacuated by the British authorities after passengers reported an “unknown object” and specifically a “grenade” on the platform of the station.
After an investigation by the authorities, it was found that it was a cannabis grinder in the shape of a grenade.
