A suspicious suitcase found outside the Torrevieja bus station prompted security restrictions on Friday, 13th November. Bomb disposal officers from the specialist TEDAX team carried out a controlled explosion at the scene. The alert led to the temporary disruption of operations at one of the town’s main transport hubs. The suitcase was discovered outside the platform area, allowing officers to examine it remotely using a robot.
Specialists then conducted a controlled detonation as a precautionary measure. Security restrictions remained in place for several hours while the team dealt with the alert. The affected area handles regular passenger traffic and connects to various destinations. The bomb disposal team confirmed that the suitcase contained no explosives. The identity of the individual who left the suitcase remains unknown.
