Chemical substances have been found at the home of a 19-year-old suspected of planning an attack on a Taylor Swift concert in Vienna, a senior official with Austria’s interior ministry has told the country’s state broadcaster.

Franz Ruf, the public security director, told ORF on Thursday the police arrested two individuals, aged 19 and 17, earlier this week, and found chemical substances and technical devices at a house in Ternitz, 20 miles south of the Austrian capital.
