Scandlines ferries EVACUATED after mysterious ‘threat’ to vessels sailing between Germany and Denmark

FERRY operator Scandlines today briefly evacuated all its ferries in the Danish town Rodby and suspended ferry traffic between Denmark and Germany following a telephone threat. “All ferry operations have been suspended, and the ferries will be emptied as soon as the police allows them to go to port,” a Scandlines spokesperson said.

The local police said the suspension came after it had received a telephone call, but declined to elaborate.

However, cops later announced they had searched and cleared the first ferries at the Danish ports Rodby and Gedser and allowed them to resume operations.

Ferry routes between Denmark and Sweden, which had also been suspended due to the threats, were resumed shortly after, police said.
