Two suspected extremists were arrested in Austria on Wednesday, one of whom appeared to be planning an attack on an event in the Vienna area such as upcoming Taylor Swift concerts, authorities said, reported news agency Associated Press.
The Vienna leg of a tour by American mega-star Taylor Swift has been cancelled after Austria arrested a man in connection with an ISIS terror plot, the organisers said Wednesday.
